The United Nations has recognised Renault’s significant efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions at its plant in Tangier, Morocco.

By switching from natural gas to biomass for its boilers and implementing a highly effective heat recovery process in its paint shop, the advanced Renault plant has cut CO2 emissions by almost 10,500 metric tonnes a year.

Sydney has become the latest major city to offer its employees a fleet of zero-emission Nissan LEAFs. The recent delivery of ten LEAFs, the single largest order in Australia, reaffirms the New South Wales city's commitment to green initiatives – and serves as an example to its 4.6 million inhabitants.
