These surveys identified a number of opportunities to reduce energy consumption. Reports have been completed and recommendations made to obtain the savings identified
To reduce energy consumption in the BT network and estate by 15% over the five-year period April 1992 to March 1997 1994 Strategic Superseded Over the five year period BT reduced its energy consumption by 13.8% against a background of increasing new services. This did not quite meet our original target of 15% but still represent major annual savings of 465 GWh of energy and over 90,000 tonnes of CO2
BT will reduce energy consumption across its network and estate by 11% over the five year period from April 1997 to March 2002 1997 Strategic New  
As a trial, BT will fit diesel vans with catalytic converters to assess their effect on emissions and fuel use by March 1997 1996 Process Delayed Initial findings on fuel consumption are satisfactory and reliability has been good. The effect of the catalytic converters on emissions has not yet been assessed. This will take place during 1997/98
