Working towards a sustainable future
We’re committed to making a sustainable difference to our customers, communities and society. As the scale of the global sustainability challenge has become clearer, we’ve applied our experience and expertise to finding meaningful solutions, whilst enabling our customers to realise their decarbonisation goals.
Transport is the UK’s largest emitting sector of greenhouse gas emissions so we’re committed to accelerating vehicle electrification and improving access to EV charging infrastructure. In alignment with the Climate Change Committee’s ZEV Mandate, we’re supporting the development of alternative fuel technology for larger vehicles to future-proof fleets.
We’re also providing finance to sustainable energy projects, partnering with customers with like-minded aspirations in areas such as wind, solar, and battery storage.
To meet our sustainability ambitions, we’ve set aspirational decarbonisation targets in line with the Paris Agreement focused on making a lasting, positive impact now and for the future.
