  • Further implementation of boiler operation time control, which saved about 6000 litres monthly
  • Retrofit of 180 T8 fluorescent tubes (1200 mm length), which operate 20 hours per day, with T5 fluorescent tubes equipped with “save it easy” energy saving adaptor (28 W) and disablement of the electromagnetic ballasts. This has helped to save 22% of electricity compared with original lighting fitting (36 W)
  • Installation of six motion sensors to control ON/OFF lighting automatically in six staff toilets, which operate 24 hours per day. This has helped to save up to 30% of electricity compared with local switch control
  • Installation of energy saving spot lights (9 W) in six newly renovated staff toilets, which operate 24 hours per day. This has helped to save about 55% of electricity compared with conventional spot lights (20 W)
  • Installation of 120 (20 W) energy saving lamps instead of conventional spot lights (80 W) at planter, which saved up to 75% of electricity compared with traditional lighting fitting
  • A total of 132 lamps at the heart of the hotel, which exceed the standard lighting levels of 114 kWh/day, have been de-lamped. The energy saving is around 33% of the total consumption of existing installation
  • Retrofit of 200 (3W) tungsten lights at The Lobby Lounge, which operate 14 hours per day, with 0.25W LED lights. This has helped to save 92% of electricity compared with original lighting fitting
  • Temporary suspension of two out of four services lifts for six hours per day during off-peak hours has saved 197.4 kWh / day. The saving is around 13% compared with existing system

  • Has had a formal environment policy in place since 1998. This strategy involves our businesses and support functions and aligns with our business goals. Action plans were built around the strategy’s three pillars:
    • Operational impacts
    • Sustainable finance
    • Stakeholder engagement  
  • As a bank, our operations have less impact on the environment than many businesses, but we can make a difference by improving in three key areas:
    • Energy consumption in our buildings
    • Emissions from air travel
    • Use of paper, which not only depletes forests but its production is energy and water-intensive
  • To help deliver the targets and monitor the overall impacts on the environment, we have undertaken a comprehensive review and update of our Global Environmental Management System (GEMS), modelled broadly on ISO 14001, the international environment management standard. GEMS aims to deliver:
    • Consistent environmental policy commitments and international environmental standards
    • A framework for setting and reviewing environmental targets consistent with environmental, cultural, political and regulatory circumstances or requirements
    • Accurate and consistent data on our environmental performance, enabling us to set targets and track progress  
  • Our biggest opportunity to help turn the tide of environmental damage is beyond our own operations. Our wide engagement inside and outside the Bank achieves change by influencing the behaviour of employees, customers and others
  • Recognition of performance includes:
    • Inclusion in the 2007 and 2008 Carbon Disclosure Leadership Index, a prestigious roll of honour for global corporations addressing the challenges of climate change
    • Honoured as Best in Class in our approach to climate change disclosure in a report released on 22 September 2008 by the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), a coalition of more than 315 global investors with over USD41 trillion in assets. Now in its sixth year, the CDP report is a survey of the responses of Financial Times 500 corporations to the issue of climate change
    • Inclusion in the FTSE4Good Environmental Leaders Europe 40 Index. The index includes European stocks included in the FTSE4Good Series that received the top environmental score of 5
