Our environment

Minimising our environmental impacts and maximising opportunities to enhance the environment are core to our sustainable approach. Our aim is to make sure the environment is properly considered in all our decisions. We seek to be effective and efficient with the resources we use, promoting environmental stewardship across all AMEC stakeholders through our environmental management systems.

Climate change represents the single largest environmental, social and economic challenge this century and will impact our customers, employees, and other stakeholders. It is, therefore, a key focus of AMEC’s sustainability strategy.

Our ‘low-carbon’ management strategy

Our approach to managing our carbon emissions follows a hierarchical approach of elimination – substitution – efficient management. Our strategy is to adapt the way we operate to make more effective business decisions, which cut our energy need, travel and resource consumption.

Supporting customers to manage climate change

Providing technological solutions to climate change is imperative to tackling this global issue. AMEC is at the forefront of many new innovations from low-carbon energy production, carbon capture and storage to assisting customers in carbon-proofing their management systems.
