Accelerating Ecological Transformation Through GreenUp
Veolia's GreenUp strategic program is our 3-year roadmap that is accelerating our efforts to achieve our purpose of Ecological Transformation. Through ambitious global and local targets, GreenUp outlines our priorities to enhance capabilities in decarbonisation, depollution, and resource regeneration.
Australia was identified as one of three key regions with the highest potential for accelerated growth through GreenUp. To demonstrate this, our local GreenUp ambitions across ANZ are to grow our waste, water, and industrial activities by 10% year on year while increasing our energy business tenfold, and halving our carbon emissions by 2032.
OUR 3 PILLARS OF GREENUP
Our 2024 achievements
In the first year of Veolia's GreenUp strategic program (2024-2027), Veolia Australia and New Zealand demonstrated remarkable progress, evidencing our commitment to ecological transformation through significant achievements across all three pillars.
Expanded our renewable energy capabilities through Energy In a Box acquisition.
Enhanced our waste management infrastructure with new facilities including Australia's largest anaerobic digestion plant.
Strengthened our water services with the extension of our operations at Sydney Desalination Plant to 2042.
These milestones, along with our new Net Zero plan and improved landfill gas capture systems, showcase our dedication to decarbonisation, depollution, and regeneration of natural resources, setting a strong foundation for our continued contribution to a more sustainable future.
