We are now proud to share our third RIIO-T2 Annual Environmental Report for 2023-2024. Our report provides a progress update in achieving our ambitious environmental targets for the 2021-2026 five-year period, set out in our Environmental Action Plan.
Here are some key examples of our strong environmental performance:
Connecting 1.35GW of new low carbon generation to the network
17% reduction in controllable scope 1 and 2 emissions since FY19
Purchasing 100% renewable energy for our metered estate
Diverting 99.4% of our construction waste from landfill
7.9% improvement in the environmental value of non-operational land since FY21
100% of our construction projects committing to deliver 10% net gain or greater
Achieving certification for our Integrated Management System, which includes ISO14001
We have developed a new Environmental Action Plan for RIIO-T2 (2021-2026), setting firm targets for the five-year period. These are focused on four priority areas:
Our Environmental Action Plan is our handbook to further reduce our carbon emissions, reduce our resource use, improve our natural environment and demonstrate leadership for change.
