Aguas Andinas is prioritizing data-backed targets that will reduce its emissions across the three carbon scopes.
Aguas Andinas, which supplies water and wastewater to the capital city of Santiago, is exploring every avenue to become more sustainable. This includes purchasing renewable energy and reducing energy use.
Aguas Andinas has successfully reduced emissions by 25%.
Setting realistic, data-based goals and adopting tailored strategies, can help utilities drive progress. Before setting net-zero targets, Aguas Andinas is developing a better understanding of its process emissions by deploying sensors to measure them.
The utility is using data to optimize process control and reduce GHG emissions.
“A harsher climate presents immediate risks that we need to be resilient against, but the long-term risk is that, without GHG mitigation, our climate will only become more hostile,” - Felipe Sánchez, sustainability manager at Aguas Andinas
Aguas Andinas has mapped pragmatic decarbonization plans, focusing on achieving its 2030 targets before committing to a net-zero goal. The utility holds itself accountable with a data-driven approach to track progress.
