In Australia, global firm BAI Communications designs, builds and operates communications infrastructure – cellular, WiFi, broadcast, radio and IP networks. Emissions from electricity supply sources make up 98 per cent of its total emissions. As it navigates energy transition and rising energy prices, together with a customer-driven desire to lower carbon emissions, moving towards net zero emissions is a long-term priority for the organisation.
Aurecon, through its Future Energy expertise, is supporting BAI Communications to implement initiatives to progress towards achieving this objective.
Lowering carbon emissions is a whole-of-business initiative across all areas of current emissions and environmental life-cycle costs. Aurecon’s technical and strategic advice provides a combination of technologies and projects, and the right pathways, for BAI Communications to transition towards a net zero emissions future. We have identified the timing, business impact, cost and risk factors associated with different portfolios of projects and technologies.
Targets, strategies, projects and initiatives are being developed that harness carbon reduction opportunities and contribute to low carbon business operations.
The areas of opportunity under consideration include renewable energy purchase, renewable energy production and energy consumption reduction measures, consistent with the organisation’s emissions footprint profile and operational requirements. Initiatives are tailored for different corporate sites in line with ownership of land, equipment and power consumption.
The strategic advice also focuses on how BAI Communications can carefully encourage emissions reduction along its supply chain to reduce environmental impacts and the transition risk of changes to business models and operations.
Each project and initiative will make an important contribution to enabling BAI Communications to move towards net zero emission for its future, and the future of its customers.
