Our purpose at Zenobē is to make clean energy accessible. We do this through the innovative use of battery solutions, enabling our customers to switch to renewable energy, electric vehicles, and efficient power distribution.

Our policy is to minimise the environmentally harmful effects of our operations, to promote an environmentally aware culture, and to provide staff with the necessary tools to support us in achieving our sustainability goals.   

We will comply as a minimum with all relevant environmental legislation as well as with other environmental requirements to which the company subscribes. We commit that we will continually improve our environmental management system and performance and that we will integrate recognised environmental management best practice into our business operations.  

To achieve this we will:  

• Review environmental policies and performance, and allocate resources for effective direction and implementation;
• Set and monitor key objectives and targets for managing our environmental performance;
• Communicate internally and externally our environmental policy and performance on a regular basis, and encourage feedback;
• Communicate the importance of environmental issues to our employees and contractors;
• Work together with our clients, employees and suppliers to promote improved environmental performance;
• Promote appropriate consideration of sustainability and environmental issues in the services we provide to our clients; and
• Review our environmental policy regularly.   

We commit to: 

• Deliver products and services that enable the transition of commercial vehicles to electric power, improving the air quality of our towns and cities and powering the charge to zero carbon.
• Deliver products and services that enable the integration of renewable energy generation onto the electricity grid, ensuring the stability of the transmission and distribution networks.
• Develop a second-life battery solution that enables batteries to be redeployed to provide stationary and portable storage solutions when they are no longer suitable for mobile use. This will reduce demand for mineral extraction and reduce embedded emissions in the battery supply chain. We will also call for policy and regulation to support second-life usage and battery recycling.
• Influence climate action across society, driving the decarbonisation of the energy sector by responding to government consultations, submitting code modifications, participating in events, and producing and circulating thought leadership articles.
• Measure and take action to reduce the carbon footprint of our business activities to meet our published objectives and targets. As a signatory to the Science Based Targets initiative, Zenobē have committed to reach net zero value chain emissions by no later than 2050.  Actions will include:
  • Purchasing “green” electricity from renewable sources.
  • Minimising business travel, avoiding air travel where possible. Where travel is unavoidable, we will use the least carbon intensive means of transportation.
  • Reducing everyday travel emissions by adopting a flexible working policy, allowing employees to work remotely.
  • Implementing energy-saving measures in our offices, such as sensor lights.
  • Offsetting any carbon emissions that we do not eliminate through a VCS-certified project.
• Take environmental and climate risks into account in the procurement of all goods and services.
• Manage business operations to prevent pollution, protect the environment and enhance local biodiversity.
• Reduce our consumption of resources and improve the efficient use of those resources.
• Manage waste generated from our business operations according to the principles of reduction, re-use and recycling. In line with the Clean Neighbourhoods and Environment Act 2005, we will remove waste from sites appropriately and legally with permitted and licensed waste removal and disposal services.
