Mitie的净零导航仪揭示了2024年的脱碳预测

  • Mitie’s latest 2024 Net Zero Navigator report reveals that a third (33%) of companies are still not confident about predicting their 能源 usage despite the use of 科技nology
  • The decarbonisation report outlines nine 行业 predictions for the year ahead from Mitie’s team of 脱碳专家 and leading sustainability expert and author, 吉姆·麦克勒兰德
  • The predictions cover a range of topics from circular procurement and the road to becoming nature positive to AI’s role in reducing 能源 consumption

Mitie已经推出了2024年的净零导航器, which reveals nine key decarbonisation predictions for the year ahead whilst offering advice and support for organisations taking their next steps on the transition to net zero.

Research from the Net Zero Navigator reveals that when it comes to carbon reporting, a third (33%) of companies are still not confident about predicting their 能源 usage despite the use of 科技nology. 随着许多组织将其年度强制性碳报告自动化, they are missing out on more extensive and meaningful insights into their carbon usage which can help develop sustainability strategies. Advances in 科技nology offer the opportunity for organisations to measure their carbon emissions more regularly throughout the year and track tangible progress so increased measurement will likely become the norm in 2024. 自动化将是使这一过程更快、更有效的核心.

The Net Zero Navigator also outlines the fast-growing adoption of artificial 情报 (AI) and Internet of Things (IoT) 科技nology to enhance 能源 efficiency, with almost three-fifths (57%) of organisations having already implemented AI or IoT to gain insights into their 能源 usage and carbon emissions. From forecasting 能源 supply and demand to increasing the reliability of grid connections, 人工智能对脱碳的巨大影响将在未来一年继续下去. 然而, 脱碳专家 are warning that organisations must exercise caution as any 科技nology which is 能源 and resource-intensive will require a robust strategy to mitigate its associated costs and 能源 use. 否则,它可能很快成为碳排放的主要贡献者.

Another key prediction from the Net Zero Navigator is that despite the government’s new five-year extension to the electric vehicle (EV) transition deadline, 许多组织将继续推进 使他们的船队电气化 and will likely resist the opportunity to delay their EV plans despite the extra time afforded to them. 然而, 对充电基础设施和成本的担忧仍将挥之不去, with over a third (35%) of organisations citing charging costs as the biggest barrier to adopting a fully electric fleet. 该报告还预测了未来一年的情况, many organisations will rethink and re-evaluate their EV transition plans to ensure they are taking the necessary checks such as infrastructure analysis to drive learnings and eradicate inefficiencies.

2024净零导航员的其他关键预测和发现包括:

  • 能源战略: Effectively reducing carbon emissions will help to positively impact the bottom line, with two-thirds (65%) of organisations agreeing their net zero strategy has improved investor engagement
  • 水: Reducing water consumption will give organisations an easy win in cutting Scope 3 emissions
  • 浪费: 循环采购将是减少浪费的秘密武器
  • 性质: Focus on green infrastructure and biodiversity will be stronger than ever as almost all (96%) sustainability decision-makers identify their organisation’s net zero strategy as nature positive
  • 数据: Smarter data collection and benchmarking will not only accelerate the path to net zero, 但将决定能源市场的未来

The Net Zero Navigator was compiled by Mitie’s 脱碳专家 in collaboration with sustainability expert and author, 吉姆·麦克勒兰德 who also shares his predictions on what will be driving the decarbonisation agenda this year.

Mitie能源和脱碳董事总经理Pradyumna Pandit表示:

“The start of a new year brings the opportunity to reflect on the progress made towards net zero goals and set new resolutions to accelerate their achievement. From the use of 科技nology in carbon reporting to an increased focus on biodiversity, the predictions and findings from this year’s Net Zero Navigator will provide organisations with ideas, 工具, 以及在2024年对其排放产生影响的指导意见.”
