This April, Inghams New Zealand will take a major step towards sustainability, when it transitions to a 100% renewable electricity contract with Lodestone Energy backed by New Zealand Energy Certificates (NZ-ECs) from BraveTrace. The agreement will enable Inghams to reduce its reportable Scope 2 emissions to zero while supporting the development of new renewable energy projects that will benefit New Zealand for decades to come. By utilising NZ-ECs, Inghams ensures that its electricity consumption is matched by renewable generation, reinforcing its commitment to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and increasing its use of renewable electricity.
The BraveTrace NZ-ECs provided by Lodestone Energy ensure that Inghams’ sustainability claims are backed by verified renewable energy sourcing, aligning with best international practices in carbon reporting. Through this partnership, Inghams is actively contributing to New Zealand’s low-carbon transition while maintaining transparency and accountability in its energy use.
For businesses in New Zealand, the Inghams-Lodestone partnership highlights the growing role of NZ-ECs in corporate sustainability strategies. As consumer expectations and regulatory pressures for sustainability increase, companies leveraging NZ-ECs will play a crucial role in advancing a cleaner, greener economy. Inghams sets a strong example of how businesses can demonstrate leadership in renewable energy adoption.
