Press Release of 15 June 2010
AGO AG receives carbon foot print ISO certification - as one of the first
five companies in Germany
- Certified identification of the company's annual CO2 emissions
- AGO AG one of the precursors in Germany
- Annual reduction of CO2 emissions aimed for
Kulmbach, 15 June 2010: AGO AG Energie + Anlagen (cusip number: A0LR41,
ISIN: DE000A0LR415) receives ISO 14064-1 certification. With this
certification, the correct identification of the company's annual CO2
emissions is recorded. According to the certifier, AGO AG is one of few
German companies to have dedicated themselves to reducing their annual CO2
emissions.
'The exact corporate consideration of the harmful CO2 will in the future
play an even more important role for companies and consumers. We act on the
assumption that consumers will focus much more on how much CO2 is emitted
for products and services and will choose accordingly. The carbon footprint
of a company will have a considerable influence on the commercialization of
a product and will give the precursors a clear - even if limited -
competitive advantage. Companies become more and more aware of the fact
that climate protection and social responsibility for generations to come
are tasks to be taken care of by them', says Hans Ulrich Gruber, speaker of
the Board of AGO AG. 'AGO offers other companies to identify their emission
amount plus subsequent certification by an external inspector', says
Gruber.
AGO AG is planning to reduce their annual CO2 emissions, e.g. by
identifying and reducing so called emission hotspots. As a result, AGO AG
is starting to buy company cars according to emission limits.
