Infrastructure Group

Major project investment across transport, energy and utility infrastructure is currently providing the industry with opportunities to deliver significant reductions in environmental impacts and improve the long term social value for local, regional and national communities.

Clients are demanding more sustainable practices; stakeholders are exerting more pressure and legislation is becoming increasingly stringent. All these drivers are encouraging supply chains to provide efficient, green and ethical solutions as normal business practice.

The infrastructure sector has a significant role to play in decarbonisation. This report, produced for the Infrastructure Group by Action Sustainability, set out to understand key themes in the carbon reduction strategies of client organisations and asks for suppliers – both to help clients understand where greater consistency and alignment could be created, and to provide suppliers with a simple guide on what they should expect when engaging with these organisations. It remains highly relevant and is a useful reference document for the industry.
