One specific area we have been working on is reducing energy consumption. We’re taking what we’ve learned ourselves and are helping customers put it into practice in their businesses. 我们的方法结合了数据, insight and our service know-how, to help our customers improve sustainability. Here’s how we are doing just that for Nordea.
能源管理
我们从数据开始. We carried out a mapping and energy audit at Nordea’s Norwegian headquarters to establish a baseline reading of their energy consumption. We also began to integrate systems to provide greater transparency. During the audits and integration, we discovered a number of improvement opportunities that would result in future cost-avoidance.
We took our findings, qualified them into business cases and proposed the changes to Nordea. 例如, one of the business cases focused on replacing the old light bulbs with the latest LED technology throughout the parking garage and thereby reducing electricity consumption. Through all recommended changes, 国际空间站 estimates that Nordea could avoid CO2 emissions by 747 tonnes over a five-year period.
展望未来
我们的工作并没有就此停止. We are scaling our energy management service across all of Nordea, covering their headquarters by the end of 2020. We will also expand our service to improve Nordea’s waste management.
事实上, we’re developing more and more ways to approach energy management for our customers, including services like real-time monitoring, where analysts take data insights and turn them into energy-saving initiatives, and technicians can respond immediately to any issues.
不管是什么方法, our goal is to help customers create sustainable places, where we cut costs and emissions in equal measure. And we’re confident that, with the right energy and focus, we can achieve it.
