In FY23, 96% of the energy we purchased in the UK was renewable. We are continually improving the efficiency of our offices and data centers, and are ensuring that our data centers are certified under the ISO 50001 energy management system standard. We are also advancing the sustainability of our IT services, helping our customers to become more sustainable. We are members of the Green Software Foundation, a non-profit with the mission to build a trusted ecosystem of people, standards, tooling and best practices for creating and building green software.
