Sustainability at Essential Energy

Our Sustainability Strategy guides us in generating positive value for stakeholders including our customers, our community, and our people. We are committed to supporting the industry and our communities in the transition to a net zero economy, while continuing to provide customers with accessible, reliable, and resilient energy. Our sustainability strategy builds on our strong foundation of existing sustainability-related activities, and leverages key sustainability themes in the Corporate Strategy (increasing network resilience and reliability, renewable energy uptake and facilitating electric vehicle (EV) adoption) Essential energy is responding to climate change by: 1. Building climate resilience and partnering to minimise disruptions during crisis by future-proofing assets, providing our customers with alternate energy solutions and responding to climate events 2. Facilitating the net zero transition by supporting electrification, including electric vehicle penetration and scaling and optimising network connections 3. Decarbonising our operations by electrifying our fleet, leveraging renewables and actively managing line losses in the way we build, operate and maintain the network

Lots! We are an electrical distributor so we have lots of ways to help reduce our electricity bill as well as facilities in place for this. We have a huge range of Hybrid and EV's. We have a section for motorcycles, eBikes and Push bikes.

They promote recycling, and using the resources that we have available to us efficiently.

Enabling the proliferation of solar and renewable energy sources to flow across the network is a major focus for the company in the coming years.

Several initiatives and strategies to reduce carbon footprint

Very big on Electric Vehicles.

not discussed in my department, but I assume a lot since we generate electricity
