Carbon reduction plan 25/26
iNTRODUCTION
AIS Group operates across the UK and Europe delivering industrial relocation, installation, logistics and engineering services through its group companies including AIS Vanguard, AIS Eurelo, AIS Wind Energy, VIG Industrial Relocation and Flegg Projects.
Our operations involve transport, specialist lifting equipment, engineering activities and project mobilisation across multiple locations. We recognise that these activities carry environmental impacts, including carbon emissions.
This Carbon Reduction Plan outlines our approach to managing and reducing these emissions over time.
NET ZERO COMMITMENT
The AIS Group is committed to achieving Net Zero carbon emissions by 2050.
This commitment reflects our intention to progressively reduce emissions associated with our operations while continuing to provide reliable industrial services across Europe.
OPERATIONAL EMISSIONS SOURCES
Key sources of emissions within our operations typically include:
- Company vehicles and transport operations
- Specialist plant and lifting equipment
- Energy consumption across offices, depots and workshops
- Business travel and project mobilisation
- Supply chain activities and purchases services
Understanding these areas allows us to identify where improvements can be made.
