Commitment to Rigorous Carbon Reduction

Landis+Gyr has signed the commitment letter to join the Science Based Target initiative and set ambitious science-based targets. These efforts follow Landis+Gyr’s purpose to manage energy better for a greener tomorrow and are in line with the Paris Agreement, limiting global warming to well-below 2°C above pre-industrial levels and pursue efforts to limit warming to 1.5°C.

Simultaneously, Landis+Gyr needs to make sure that it reaches the ambitious goals set for the company for which the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals build the foundation. Landis+Gyr is currently defining its environmental, social, and governance (ESG) targets for the next 3-year cycle to support the goal of becoming 100% carbon neutral by 2030.

Landis+Gyr’s Carbon Reduction Enablement Model

This whitepaper details a carbon reduction enablement model for smart meters, quantifying greenhouse gas (GHG) savings achieved through the deployment of Landis+Gyr’s smart meters. The model assesses the energy consumption reduction facilitated by smart meters and calculates the associated CO2 e avoided, utilizing country-specific data and methodologies validated by The Carbon Trust. By improving consumer awareness and enabling behavioral changes, smart meters contribute to significant energy use reductions, promoting a more sustainable energy management system.
