Our business operations are certified by Climate Active!

Great news! Lumo Energy is officially certified by Climate Active.

We’ve made changes in how we operate to achieve this milestone.

Lumo Energy has reduced carbon emissions by embracing new technologies and adjusting our work approach. Here’s how:

• We use 100% GreenPower electricity for our offices, upgraded appliances, and lighting for energy efficiency
• We’re transitioning our vehicle fleet to electric and hydrogen cars
• Staff can use electric bikes for shorter trips
• We encourage video conferencing to cut down on travel
• Adopted a paperless policy to minimise paper usage
• Automated lighting and temperature in our building for minimal energy consumption

Even though some emissions are unavoidable for now, we’ve got it covered. We’ve purchased Australian Carbon Credit Units (ACCUs) to help offset them.^* We’ve even factored in staff commuting and working from home. We proudly support the Climate Active organisation trademark because we’re all about supporting climate action. We believe it’s crucial for Australian companies like us to take responsibility for our environmental impact, and we want everyone to know about it. Lumo Energy is Climate Active certified for our business operations, but keep in mind, this does not extend to your energy supply.

^*Whilst carbon offsets such as ACCUs may help offset greenhouse gas emissions, they do not prevent emissions that are released from burning fossil fuels. Even with carbon offsetting, the emissions released from burning fossil fuels for a customer’s energy use still contribute to climate change.

About Climate Active

Climate Active is an ongoing partnership between the Australian Government and Australian businesses to drive voluntary climate action. Climate Active is the only government-backed carbon certification scheme in Australia. The brand represents Australia’s collective effort to measure, reduce and offset carbon emissions to lessen our negative impact on the environment.
