The Toolbox by 11th Hour Racing Team
The Toolbox by 11th Hour Racing Team
A suite of guides, tools and templates created by 11th Hour Racing Team for the purpose of establishing a sustainability program within any organization, no matter the size or industry sector.
The Toolbox recently joined forces with The Association of National Olympic Committees (ANOC) to provide The Sustainability Toolbox to all National Olympic Committees. Building on their commitment to align with the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). The Toolbox was presented at the ANOC General Assembly in Seoul on October 20, 2022.

SME CLIMATE HUB
SME CLIMATE HUB
The SME Climate Hub is a global initiative that empowers small to medium sized companies to take climate action and build resilient businesses for the future.
The Hub is an initiative of the We Mean Business Coalition, the Exponential Roadmap Initiative and the United Nations Race to Zero campaign in collaboration with Normative and the Net Zero team at Oxford University. (SME Climate Hub, 2022)
You can also sign up to the Race to Zero and commit to reduce your emissions 50% by 2030.
GHG Protocol establishes comprehensive global standardized frameworks to measure and manage greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from private and public sector operations, value chains and mitigation actions.

Quantis Scope 3 evaluator
Quantis Scope 3 evaluator
For many companies, more than 80% of their GHG impacts occur outside of their own operations*. However, quantification and reporting of value chain emissions can be a time intensive task and many companies just don’t know where to start. As the developers of the Scope 3 Accounting and Reporting Standard, GHG Protocol seeks to reduce barriers to uptake of the standard and encourage the use of the standard to improve management of companies’ value chain GHG emissions.
To help facilitate the adoption of the Scope 3 Standard, GHG Protocol teamed up with Quantis to develop this free scope 3 screening tool.

BREEAM ( certification is a science-based suite of validation and certification systems for sustainable built environment. Watch this video on about how Ben Ainslie Racing achieved BREEAM excellence rating for their America's Cup Teambase in 2016.
LEED certification (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) is the most widely used green building rating system in the world. Available for virtually all building types, LEED provides a framework for healthy, highly efficient, and cost-saving green buildings. LEED certification is a globally recognized symbol of sustainability achievement and leadership.

The Ocean Race Climate and Ocean ambitions for the 2023 race :
75% reduction in race organiser GHG emissions.
100% renewable energy in head office and race villages.
Engaging our stakeholders to join us in the race to zero emissions.
Climate positive race, drawing down more GHGs than emitted.
SailGP hosted their 1st 100% clean energy event in Aarhus in 2022 and aims to have 100% of fan villages using renewable energy by the end of 2023 and 100% onwater operations using clean energy by 2025. See their Clean Energy Roadmap here.
The Route de Rhum works with the technical suppliers Toovalu and Carbone4 to undertake their carbon footprinting. 75% of the events emissions come from transport which has resulted in a partnership with SNCF to increase train services to St Malo during the event and a partnership with Stadium Go to encouage car sharing.

Persico Group has built a 53.58-kW array of photovoltaic panels which generates about 60,000 kWh per year of electricity. Producing this clean, renewable energy involves very low maintenance costs and, most importantly, has zero environmental impact.
Persico also has two hydroelectric power plants which harnesses the potential energy of a relatively small hydraulic head (from 2 to 4 meters) without disrupting the natural flow of the waters. The energy yield of the turbines is optimized with the aid of a remote control system that allows for managing any mechanical or hydraulic anomalies.
