Protecting the planet through business sustainability
We're committed to protecting the planet and enabling our business customers to do the same. Learn how Vodafone can help your business reach its sustainability goals.
Make sustainability the heart of your business
The global landscape is shifting as organisations across diverse industries embrace sustainability not just as a moral obligation, but as a strategic imperative.
We’re empowering all kinds of businesses to assess their environmental impact, reduce energy consumption and emissions, and create more sustainable long-term business models. Our innovative solutions are built on our award-winning global network, with expert advice at every step to help your business embrace sustainable growth and thrive.
Achieving net zero
Our goal is to cut carbon emissions for our UK operations to net zero by 2027. We’re making our business and network as efficient as possible, moving to an electric fleet, and have already switched to 100% renewable electricity. We’ve switched on the UK’s first self-powering phone mast, and UK-based renewable power sources will fulfil around 44% of Vodafone UK’s annual energy requirements by 2025.
Promoting circularity
Businesses play a critical role in steering the economy towards a more circular model. To adopt circular practices at scale however, they need to do so while protecting their profit margins. At Vodafone Business, we’re here to help our customers choose the right devices to meet their sustainability agenda and renew devices less frequently.
Connecting for a better future
We’re helping our business customers reduce their environmental impacts with smart technology, such as Internet of Things. Vodafone Business IoT sensors are helping Forest Research and Defra to understand how variations in environmental parameters affect each tree. Meanwhile, Vodafone Business Fleet Analytics telematics help United Utilities maximise business efficiency and protect employees with a sustainable fleet..
Enabling technologies for the green transition
By finding the right solutions to help improve your environmental impact, you can move closer to towards meeting your net zero targets, track and monitor your emissions, and make the most of hybrid and remote working. We’re harnessing the power of enabling technologies to reach net zero within our own UK company by 2027 – and we can help our customers do the same.
Growing sustainable SMEs
We believe that urgent and decisive action is needed to tackle climate change. That’s why we deliver innovative, data-driven solutions to help businesses assess their environmental impact, reduce energy consumption and emissions, and create more sustainable long-term business models.
Our partners
WWF
Vodafone and WWF are partners with a shared belief that tackling the climate and nature crisis needs everyone (individuals, business and government) to work together to find solutions and drive the action we desperately need for people and the planet.
We also recognise the technology we use every day can play a critical role in the decarbonisation of society and the restoration of nature. That’s why we’re committed to helping businesses move towards ways of working that leave a positive impact on the planet, by providing them with the knowledge, technologies, services and support they need to take steps towards a better future for everyone.
Extreme E
Vodafone Business is the communications partner for Extreme E.
Extreme E is a motorsport series, trying to lower the carbon footprint with the promotion of electric vehicles.
Extreme E also wants to draw attention the impact of climate change and show solutions which everyone can be a part of, as well as accelerate gender equality in motorsport.
We want customers, businesses and the wider society to make greener choices through technology.
Through this partnership, both of our organisations will leverage innovation to enhance the future and improve lives.
