Ameresco, Inc., (NYSE: AMRC), a leading cleantech integrator
specializing in energy efficiency and renewable energy, today
announced the release of its 2023 Impact Report on the theme of
“Doing Well, by Doing Good: People, Planet and Policy.” The report
demonstrates the lasting impact that Ameresco’s business has across
employees, customers, partners, communities, planet, industry, and
beyond. This year’s report showcases the multitude of ways that the
company remains committed to bringing its vision to “energize a
sustainable future” to life across its 1,500+ employees and broad
customer footprint spanning North America and Europe.
Since its founding in 2000, Ameresco has led a dedicated
tremendous effort to drive the clean energy transition through cost
saving, environmentally responsible and resilience-strengthening
projects with Federal, state and local governments, utilities,
educational and healthcare institutions, and others. In 2023,
Ameresco customer projects and the Company’s renewable energy
assets avoided approximately 16 million metric tons of CO2 and now,
over 110 million metric tons cumulatively since the company went
public in 2010 through the end of 2023.
"Ameresco’s impact – and future impact – motivates me every day.
As a pioneer in clean energy, our journey has granted us the
opportunity to spearhead and shape the energy sector's
transformation, and sustainability isn't just a principle for our
customers; it's woven into the fabric of our daily operations,"
said George Sakellaris, President and CEO of Ameresco. "We are
doing well by doing good, and I could not be prouder of what our
customers and our team have been able to achieve when it comes to
our people, our planet and our policies.”
Some of the report’s highlights from 2023 include:
- Countless exemplary customer stories of how organizations are
embracing energy efficiency, renewable generation, infrastructure
modernization and more to drive cost savings, resiliency and
decarbonization goals;
- A new mentorship program whose initial cohort of 150
participants gained valuable cross-company engagement and coaching
via mentor-mentee pairings;
- Cultivating a diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplace
through monthly themed programming, and partnering with nonprofits,
such as STEM Like a Girl, to bolster the representation of
underrepresented groups in the clean energy field;
- Over 26,000 training hours completed by employees across
safety, cybersecurity, human resources, and sales, marketing and
technology topics;
- A continued focus on health and safety across the global
footprint, including a safety organization that utilizes an
integrated safety management approach to perform work and adhere to
core safety values;
- Over 3,000 hours of volunteering in local communities including
the 2023 Earth Day Cleanup where employees from MA to HI and Canada
to the U.K., took action to protect the environment by removing
trash and debris from trails and waterways;
- The company’s annual Go Green Challenge consisting of daily
eco-friendly activities focused on reducing food waste, minimizing
vehicle emissions from commuting, and recycling – to maximize
impact, the winning teams earned $7,000 in corporate donations to
support nonprofits of their choice.
The report reiterates Ameresco’s long-term commitments to
driving impact across people, planet, and policy areas such as:
achieving net zero scope 1 and 2 emissions from operations by 2040;
reducing customers’ carbon footprints by a cumulative 500 million
metric tons by 2050; continued focus on building and operating on a
strong foundation of safety first; developing career advancement
programs that facilitate future employee growth opportunities; and
more. This year’s report builds on the foundation of transparency,
leadership, and commitments established in prior years’
environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) reports.
“I am energized by what is to come,” added Doran Hole, Executive
Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Executive Chair of
Ameresco’s ESG Ambassador group. "By taking purposeful action
focused on lasting impact, we reinforce our position as a trusted
and dependable leader among our customers and industry partners.
This proactive approach to people, planet and policy emphasizes our
commitment to addressing global climate change, doing good for
people and fostering a sustainable business future for all."
