Using green energy at work

A single 20-storey office block could use four gigawatt hours (4 million kWhs) of electricity every year, producing about 4000 tonnes of greenhouse gas. This is equivalent to the greenhouse pollution emitted from nearly 1000 cars each year.

Purchasing accredited GreenPower for your business helps reduce emissions of greenhouse pollution and contributes to a sustainable environment, driving demand for electricity made from renewable sources such as solar, wind and organic matter (biomass).

Businesses can use the GreenPower logo in promotional material — so clients and customers know you are taking active steps to tackle climate change and contribute to a healthy environment.

These are some of the benefits for a business using accredited renewable energy:

Direct reductions in your greenhouse gas emissions

The ability to position the company as a responsible corporate citizen

Gain exposure through the GreenPower website showing your business is using GreenPower

Fulfill environmental policy and objectives

Improve your environmental performance rating to be included in environmentally screened funds

Over 478,000 households choose GreenPower and may be likely to purchase from or invest in companies that purchase GreenPower.
