Need a quick summary?

Here are some key takeaways on a more renewable-focused approach.

 

1. If it’s your property, it’s your asset

Put yourself in the energy driving seat. Many assets in your business could be optimised to make energy savings, drive efficiency, maximise revenues, bring down costs, and deliver greater decarbonisation.

 

2. Energy volatility has been a pressing challenge

Rising energy costs amid a period of economic uncertainty and tight margins means cleaner energy solutions have been on the radar of business leaders. Our panel believe an entirely different energy system based on renewables could revolutionise business, similar to the industrial revolution. Are you ready for change?

 

3. The switch to renewables could be a business opportunity

Change often requires upfront costs and investment. Although this makes it a finance issue, decarbonisation is also a leadership consideration. There could be opportunity from the demand for new services and suppliers. Is your business ready to step in and offer solutions?

 

4. Businesses can drive the switch to renewables faster and harder for their own benefit

It can bring costs down and investing in options such as solar panels or electric vehicles can be right for the planet and drive positive change. Businesses can put themselves in the driving seat.

Tomorrow’s truly sustainable businesses will be built on the actions we take today. Discover more ideas here and watch our FutureFit masterclasses on digitisation and purpose to hear more tips on these key business themes.
