Perenia’s shareholders show their commitment to a low carbon future
Perenia has finalised agreements with SMEC, Pacific Hydro & Mitsui to undertake carbon management services including a Green House Gas (GHG) inventory and opportunity and risk assessment for success in a carbon constrained future.
Perenia’s shareholders, like many other organisations, are facing a number of challenges in relation to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, including rising energy costs, supply chain considerations, shareholder concerns regarding the environmental impact of operations and increasing community concern over climate change. They have recognised the need to proactively respond to these issues, while also considering the economic advantages and opportunities available for forward thinking organisations.
The services Perenia will provide include quantifying GHG emissions for SMEC offices in 25 countries; developing methodologies for Pacific Hydro to monitor emissions on an ongoing basis across its global operations, including Australia, Chile and Brazil; and assisting Mitsui identify carbon based risks and opportunities with respect to its Australian assets. In all cases, these services will provide our clients with clear information on how to best minimise emissions at lowest cost. The agreements reflect each shareholder’s commitment to sustainability and carbon reduction, critical for operations in a low carbon global marketplace where shareholder, stakeholder and supply chain demands in relation to carbon management will continue to become business critical. Perenia provides Carbon Management Solution and Sustainable Energy Solutions to client in Australia and globally.
