About Ecohz

Our story

For over two decades, Ecohz has pioneered the world of renewable electricity. Harnessing that experience, we work to facilitate companies' journey to net zero by tailoring sustainability solutions.

Our environmental toolbox comprises documented renewable energy, carbon credits, biogas, and digital platforms. But more than putting tools at your disposal, we offer a unique blend of expertise and advise you every step of the way.

In short, we are here to make decarbonisation easy because we believe that simplicity enables urgent climate action – and that what is good for the planet is good for your business too.

Mission, vision and values

Mission Vision Values

Mission

Our mission is to help global businesses reduce their emissions and improve their attractiveness with tailored sustainability solutions.

Vision

Changing energy behaviour – that is our vision. Renewable energy is our ticket to a more sustainable and energy-secure future. Ecohz wants to be a game changer and drive the industry forward.

We believe that change needs to happen on many levels. On a global and national scale, we must stimulate major shifts in energy systems and infrastructure, enabling a rapid transition to a low-carbon economy. We also need to expand access to renewables at a local level and educate on the importance of reducing energy consumption.

As a company and individuals, we strive to show we are serious about taking the lead by changing our own behaviour. We believe our people, who represent an impressive pool of expertise, are the key to succeeding in our endeavour.

Values

Ecohz employees share a keen understanding of the market and are guided by a common set of values – to be dynamic, open, personal, and empowering.

Sustainability

The core of our business

Our goal is to enable a more rapid transition to a low-carbon society. We pursue this by engaging on different levels: providing products, improving frameworks, and forming partnerships for innovation.

We believe there is a clear correlation between how a business is run and its relationship with society. As a company and as individuals, we strive to show that we are serious about taking the lead by changing our own behaviour.

We take sustainability seriously and have an ambitious agenda

Ecohz takes special responsibility for communicating through its own actions the need for – and benefits of – carrying on commercial activities in a sustainable manner.
Sustainability is a key component of all decision-making within the organisation.
Prioritising sustainability secures Ecohz a long-term competitive advantage and is motivational for customers’ choice of partner.
Ecohz complies with, and where possible exceeds, the requirements set out in relevant environmental legislation and regulations.
Ecohz is committed to leading activities intended to minimise its local and global environmental impact.

Our main office is located in the centre of Oslo, encouraging employees and guests to use public transport or ride a bike to work.

The New York office has a central location in Brooklyn to promote easy commuting with public transport.

Active use of videoconferencing allows us to be closer to our customers and partners while restricting carbon-intensive travel.

We use public transport and trains as much as we can when travelling. Our extensive European and international business activities necessitate, however, the use of air travel. To compensate for the related GHG emissions, we purchase carbon removals.

Ecohz purchases renewable energy documented with Guarantees of Origin. We use EKOenergy within our offices and all employees’ households.

We require all new suppliers to document an active environmental policy. We also choose suppliers with environmentally friendly products, such as eco-labelled detergents and printing companies with FSC certification.

We signed the City of Oslo’s pact in 2015 to help Oslo halve its greenhouse gas emissions by 2030. We are committed to reducing our emissions and helping others do the same.

Ecohz calculates its carbon footprint on an annual basis. Our primary focus is on reducing our GHG emissions, but we realise that we still need to take responsibility for the emissions we cause. Therefore, we purchased carbon removal from biochar from projects in Norway and India to remove carbon from the atmosphere.

Partnerships

Ecohz is part of industry organisations that maximise our impact and contribute to meeting our customers’ needs and goals, such as Renewables Norway, RECS International and CEBA.

Financial Information

Our business is taking companies to net zero. To that end, we have strengthened the team, expanded our reach, and developed client-centric digital platforms to help companies reduce emissions. This is where our journey has taken us so far.

Code of Conduct

The Code of Conduct is an integral part of the formal governance regime at Ecohz. This Code defines the core principles and ethical standards that form the basis for how we create value in our company.

Responsible business conduct

Ecohz acts and reports in compliance with the Norwegian Transparency Act, which ensures companies provide decent working conditions and observe human rights throughout their own operations, supply chains, and partnerships.

Meet the Team

We are proud of our people. Our team comprises 15 nationalities and a blend of languages, genders, and expertise, but above all, committed individuals who work to tackle climate challenges.

Our team

We are 30 employees located in Oslo, Norway and Nyon, Switzerland. Ecohz employees share both a keen understanding of the market as well as being guided by a common set of values – dynamic, open, personal, and empowering.
