Plan

Based on its decarbonization strategy, AXYS will address the following areas:
  • Strategic Shipping:
  • Continue to develop and enact a comprehensive, sustainable plan by finding route efficiencies and prioritizing lower-emission shipping where possible
  • Use ocean freight (the lowest emissions shipping method) exclusively for large shipments
  • Engage clients with shipping decisions to encourage low-emission shipping methods
  • Use regional storage to reduce the shipping of buoys
  • Use remote support for certain activities instead of in-person
  • Build out regional service centers to reduce shipments
  • Buoys:
  • Explore alternative technologies for battery storage, including life cycle impact and repurposing materials where applicable
  • Fuel:
  • Develop a corporate zero-emissions vehicle policy
  • Replace the existing propane forklift with an electric model
  • Electricity:
  • Improve HVAC in areas not on the central system
  • Replace warehouse radiant heaters with heat pumps
  • Install High Volume Low Speed Fans in the warehouse
  • Replace remaining light fixtures with LED bulbs
  • Water:
  • Ensure all toilets are low-flow (3-6L per flush)
  • Waste:
  • Start weekly waste tracking
  • Ensure waste is disposed of in proper collection bins by staff
  • Use only refillable soaps and cleaning supplies in the office
  • Remove single-use coffee brewers
  • Replace paper coffee filters with reusable mesh basket filters
  • Set all printers to double-sided and reuse scrap paper
  • Business travel:
  • Establish a company travel policy, with the goal to hold total flights to the 2022 baseline level
  • Stay in eco-hotels when accommodation is required
  • Staff Commuting:
  • Run an employee low-carbon commuting challenge
  • Create an employee carpool program
  • Advocate for improved transit services to reduce personal vehicle use
  • Service Vessels:
  • Ensure vessel right sizing
  • Hire vessels equipped to use alternative fuels

Implement

AXYS’ initiatives implemented to date include:
  • Fuel use: larger buoys use battery storage charged by renewable energy; smaller buoys have batteries recharged by solar panels
  • Waste: Hull materials are repurposed to extend their life, and AXYS recycles mooring chains and reuse materials as much as possible
  • Travel: The company has implemented an “only necessary” travel policy
  • Commuting: WFH opportunities are offered for staff to reduce commuting emissions
  • Shipping: Activity was reduced by establishing regional hubs. Stock-counting inventories are conducted regularly to reduce frequent supply shipping and increase efficiencies. Bulk shipments are used instead of piecemeal shipments, and alternative shipping methods are prioritized over air shipments.
  • Fuel: An electric pallet jack was purchased to reduce forklift use.
  • Electricity: Occupancy sensors were installed for bathroom lights, and heat pumps are used for the HVAC in the office and warehouse
  • Water: Bathroom faucets were replaced with low-flow fixtures, and the kitchenette aerators were replaced. The cooling/testing system for buoys was discontinued due to unnecessary water use.
  • Waste: The office has comprehensive sorting into 8+ waste streams, and signage is used to reduce cross-contamination of waste streams.
