How far have we come? Urenco reflects on Net Zero Week

That’s why we aim to achieve net zero by 2040.

We are working towards this long-term ambition with targets for 2030 to reduce our operational emissions and those from purchased electricity by 90% and separately supply chain emissions by 30% from our 2019 baseline year.  

We have already made significant progress. All four of our enrichment sites have now secured a supply of 100% low-carbon electricity, hitting our scope 2 requirement ahead of schedule! Read more here: Urenco - 2030 emissions target within reach  

Prior to this, as published in our 2024 annual report, our combined operational and purchased electricity emissions were down by 53% from 2019.

However, there is still more work to do. Here are just a few examples of the tangible changes we are continuing to deliver against our net zero ambitions across our sites:

• All sites are actively working reduce refrigerant emissions  
• Our conference building in Almelo is now natural gas-free
• 30 EV charging points have been installed in Gronau
• 23 new EV charging points for employees and fleet vehicles have been installed in Capenhurst, UK
