Note: some data has been estimated
As a result of the introduction of the National Carbon Offset Standard, Endeavour Energy has changed the way in which greenhouse gas emissions are
reported. Emissions are now reported in terms of scopes rather than what has been included in Endeavour Energy’s greenhouse reduction program.
This new reporting format better aligns to the requirements of the National Carbon Offset Standard as well as ISO 14064.
• The continuation of the fleet policy
that includes the replacement
of six-cylinder with four-cylinder
vehicles and the increased
purchasing of E10 fuel.
Reflecting community perceptions
of the environment and the desire
for affordable electricity, Endeavour
Energy will review the organisation’s
climate change position statement
and voluntary target. The objective
of this review will be to establish a
position that reflects stakeholder
expectations and achieves costeffective
reductions in greenhouse
gas emissions. As a result of this
review, carbon offsets have not
been purchased for the 2010–11
financial year.
Sustainability policy
Endeavour Energy has voluntarily
adopted the New South Wales
Government Sustainability Policy
which prioritises sustainable water
and energy use, efficient waste
management, fleet management
and sustainable purchasing.
Waste management
We are committed to the sustainable
management of waste streams
and encourage waste minimisation
through avoidance, reuse and/
or recycling. During 2010–11 we
diverted 7,728 tonnes of materials
from landfill, and recycled 629,971
litres of oil removed from our
network. This includes 364,379 litres
of oil reused through a process of
energy recovery, where oil is used as
a fuel in high temperature industrial
furnaces or similar.
In addition to maintaining our
ongoing focus on diverting waste
from landfill, we also continued to
improve the accuracy and efficiency
of our waste data-management
systems and developed innovative
waste management relationships
with contractors.
Water use
As a result of the additional
office space acquisitions, water
consumption increased by 5 %
compared to 2009–10. Despite this
increase all new Endeavour Energy
office buildings and refurbishments
are required to meet high waterefficiency
standards, which will
continue to drive efficient water use.
