AVEVA, an industrial software company, has announced the release of its fifth annual Sustainability Report, highlighting the critical role of industrial intelligence in tackling global climate challenges.
The report revealed substantial progress across the company’s sustainability framework, particularly in reducing its operational footprint and advancing green product development.
A key highlight from the report is AVEVA’s continued success in reducing its Scope 1 and 2 emissions, maintaining a remarkable 93 per cent reduction against its baseline year. This achievement is attributed to strategic measures including a pivot to renewable energy sources, optimized office space management, and fleet efficiency improvements.
In a significant step towards sustainable software development, AVEVA has completed green product design maturity assessments for its entire product portfolio by the end of 2024, aligning with the Green Software Foundation’s principles. Furthermore, research and development teams have conducted power bench testing for 85% of its solutions to evaluate energy consumption, establishing a crucial baseline for future improvements.
