NEWSLETTER: Find the right Sustainability Solutions to reach Net Zero
Going Net Zero – what does it mean?
Countries, cities and companies are increasingly committing to reach net zero – removing as much CO2 as they produce – by 2050. EU is the first to put net zero targets into law and the first Net Zero Standard for companies is launched, but what does it mean for a business to go net zero?
Find the right Sustainability Solutions to reach Net Zero
Targeting net zero boosts your ESG profile, strengthens your brand reputation, attracts talented employees and improves business value. What are the different sustainability solutions in the market? Answer 3 questions and based on your targets we suggest solutions to reduce electricity emissions, emissions in supply chain or achieve net zero.

How the choice of energy solution can affect how business is perceived by the public, employees and capital providers
Bane NOR – responsible for the national railway infrastructure and electricity supply to the train companies in Norway – is ensuring that all electricity to be delivered in 2022 is Norwegian hydropower, with Guarantees of Origin. The choice and communication of the energy solutions, as well as the reduced carbon footprint, can affect the value of the brands, their attractiveness in the financial- and labour markets, and the overall company profiles. John Ravlo at ECOHZ expects an increase in individually adapted renewable power solutions not only for train companies but also for other companies in the future.
How can EU Taxonomy affect the sustainability reporting landscape?
The EU Taxonomy is changing the sustainability reporting landscape by defining business activities as sustainable or not. It is making a clear classification system, which up until now has been lacking. This comprehensive framework makes it easier to compare sustainable businesses to unsustainable ones and reduce greenwashing. This article gives clarity in EU sustainability reporting regulations, particularly the EU Taxonomy, and how it may affect sustainability reporting.
EU boosts the production of Green Gas so countries and companies canclaim and report reduced emissions
Biomethane is a type of renewable gas used as a direct substitute for natural gas in grids. In the EU the growth in biomethane is expected to accelerate, as the EU doubles its production targets of biomethane to be produced by the end of the year. ECOHZ can provide you with green gas certificates on your way to net zero emissions.
The path to net zero emissions is full of challenges. Leadership must understand the risks and commit to change now – or face an even thornier transition down the road. To meaningfully move toward net zero emissions companies must answer several tough questions, and in this article McKinsey Global Institute discusses how to manage risks and capture opportunities.
"For me changing energy behaviour means reducing our footprint and making better choices every day. Our wonderful planet and the next generation deserve our best effort to make the future more sustainable."
Pia Halse works as Sales Delivery Specialist, delivering services to our corporate customers and partners.
“If neither companies nor individuals contribute to a more sustainable energy behavior, the next generations will not experience all the wonderful things our planet gives us. Therefore it is up to each of us to make a change.”
