Impact | Reducing our emissions with Sky Zero
Reducing our emissions with Sky Zero
Transitioning towards a low-carbon economy
We’re transforming our business by designing tech with energy efficiency and recyclability in mind, minimising waste and supporting our operations with renewable energy. Our UK and Ireland operations purchase and match 100% renewable electricity. We’re transitioning our fleet to electric vans as part of our commitment to EV100. Our TV productions prioritise sustainability behind-the-scenes. And we’re finding new ways all the time to reduce our carbon emissions.
We’re part of albert, the TV industry sustainability consortium. We are also committed to the UNFCCC Sports for Climate Action framework.
Technology built with sustainability in mind
We design for energy efficiency, building products that are made to last. Once our customers have finished with their routers, set top boxes and tech products, we recondition and reuse them. And when they are no longer useful, we recycle them. All our packaging is 100% recyclable, responsibly sourced, and free from single-use plastics.
Tackling the climate crisis, through TV
People care about the planet, and across the world are feeling the effects of climate change. We’re using our channels and content to raise awareness of the climate crisis and mobilise individuals to take action, inspiring small, daily behaviour change that can make a big difference.

Working with our suppliers to reduce emissions
We work with over 11,000 suppliers. They help us to do everything from building our technology to filming our TV shows. We’re working with the suppliers we know have the greatest impact on our carbon emissions to reduce their own emissions in line with our transition to a low-carbon world. We’re also passing on the lessons we learn along the way to our suppliers, partners and competitors, to speed up change in our industry.
Investing in nature
Our priority is to lower our emissions as much as we can. It’s crucial though, that we reduce the impact of any emissions we can’t cut yet. We’ll do that by protecting and creating natural habitats, so that plants and sea grass can absorb carbon emissions. Our partners at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew and WWF are helping us to maximise our impact, ensuring that these natural habitats are good for local communities, as well as the planet.
Working for a healthier planet for decades
For years, we’ve worked to create a healthier planet.
