he QSi Environment Award recognises companies that have shown a genuine commitment to adopting environmentallyfriendly policies that have made a positive impact. This year the judges found it difficult to separate two companies of very different size that both demonstrated the highest commitment to sustainability, so two Gold Awards were made. Our first Gold winner is Addison Lee. The company has made a massive commitment to electrifying its entire fleet, acquiring more than 1,000 EVs to replace older diesels, a move that has removed 2 million kilogrammes of CO2 from London’s air. It has backed up that initiative with innovative schemes to help drivers access charging facilities – even those without off-street parking. The second Gold award went to Londonbased chauffeur Belgraves, which has taken a root and branch approach to making its business sustainable. From electric cars to solar panels and recyclable water bottles, this company has set about cleaning up every aspect of its business. The Silver award goes to GLH, a company that has long been a pioneer of green thinking. As well as moving more than half its fleet to electric cars, it has worked with its customers in the film production sector to adopt the rigorous Albert Sustainability programme, resulting in a drop in CO2 emissions against a 25% increase in work. The Bronze award goes to Royal Cars of Oxford, which impressed the judges with its commitment to fitting solar panels at its premises and installing EV charge points – along with a more ambitious plan to build a major charging hub that will be open to the public.
