Mitie launches 计划为零 with a commitment to reach zero carbon by 2025 in FM 行业 first

  • Mitie is the first facilities management (FM) company to make such an ambitious net zero carbon commitment
  • Focused around three key pillars to create maximum impact by drawing on expertise from within Mitie’s business
  • “零计划” 蓝图 will be leveraged across Mitie’s Public and Private Sector clients to support both their individual, 以及英国更广泛的商业野心

Mitie已经推出了行业领先的新产品 “零计划” commitment, pledging that it will reach net zero carbon emissions by 2025. Mitie is the first facilities management (FM) company to set such an ambitious net zero emissions target, 比英国政府2050年的目标提前了25年.

为了确保实现这一承诺,Mitie的 计划为零 集中在三个关键支柱上, encompassing the key areas of environmental impact for the business, 并设定具体的目标

  • 消除电力和交通运输的碳排放
  • 根除不可持续的废物
  • Enhance inefficient buildings to meet the highest environmental standards

在电力和运输方面, 例如, in addition to the current commitment to switching its fleet to electric vehicles, Mitie has also pledged to decarbonise its heating systems and switch to 100% renewable electricity, as well as using smart building 科技nology to maximise 能源 efficiency.

Mitie will also remove all single-use materials from its business by embracing the circular economy through initiatives such as closed-loop paper recycling and only using natural, 无毒和可生物降解的清洁产品. It will also improve biodiversity at all its sites helping ecosystems flourish.

计划为零 draws on expertise from across all areas of Mitie’s business including 可再生 Energy, 可持续的基础设施, 高效的建筑, 减少废物和电动汽车转型. 使用它的 计划为零 蓝图, Mitie will apply its capabilities to help its clients achieve their own net zero carbon targets with a package of new services designed specifically to help more clients address these sustainability challenges.

Mitie的新任可持续发展总监西蒙·金说:

“The climate emergency is a problem that we all need to take responsibility for. If we have any chance of solving it, then businesses need to take bold action now. 计划为零 我们雄心勃勃的2025年承诺实现了吗, 引领潮流, not just within our own 行业 but across wider UK business too.

We’re putting the expertise within our business into action. 我们正在加紧推出我们的电动车队, powering our buildings with renewables and championing the circular economy. 计划为零 is our promise to protect the planet and leave it in a better condition than we found it. 在接下来的五年里, 及以后, this will simply become how Mitie does business and we hope many more companies will join us on this journey.”

零计划:我们的承诺

到2025年,中国将实现净零碳排放

消除电力和交通运输的碳排放 – we will:

  • Convert our fleet to zero emission and power our Mitie EV charge points with green 能源
  • Decarbonise our heating systems and use 100% renewable 能源 for our sites via a subsidy-free Power Purchase Agreement
  • Increase our use of 科技nology to reduce work travel to a minimum. Where travel is necessary, we will choose low carbon methods

消除不可持续的废物-我们会:

  • Eliminate single-use materials by embracing the circular economy, 如通过闭环纸张回收系统
  • 减少自然资源的使用, with only items which fit our circular economy approach allowed on site
  • 利用自然, 无毒和可生物降解的清洁产品, 并在任何可能的地方支持使用新的创新, 如微纤维和表面涂层

Enhance inefficient buildings to meet the highest environmental standards – we will:

  • Always choose new offices with at least an ‘Excellent’ BREEAM rating and only re-sign leases on offices with an A EPC rating
  • Enhance 能源 optimisation and use our smart building 科技nology to achieve maximum 能源 efficiency at all our sites
  • Improve biodiversity at all of our sites using initiatives that help ecosystems flourish, such as choosing plants which attract wildlife or establishing bug hotels
