EnAW 2014 Annual Report: by business. For business. Since 2001.
Every year we look back proudly at what the business sector has accomplished. Compared with 1990, EnAW participants are emitting 25 per cent less CO₂– despite economic growth. In climate policy terms, this is important for Switzerland as the companies working with the EnAW account for almost half the emissions produced by the business sector. Product and energy-neutral advice, which we will also be continuing in the post-Kyoto period, is proving its worth.
