Roke boosts sustainability drive

JOSCAR Zero

Joins Hellios’ JOSCAR Zero Initiative

Roke proudly announces its participation in JOSCAR Zero, a pioneering decarbonisation programme by Hellios Information. Roke, an early adopter of the JOSCAR program, is committed to environmental responsibility and its determination to achieve net-zero carbon emissions.

JOSCAR Zero collects, measures, and identifies how carbon emissions can be reduced across supply chains. This initiative empowers companies to systematically reduce their carbon footprint, implement sustainable practices, and work towards net-zero carbon operations.

JOSCAR Zero was developed in response to the government’s pledge to a 100% reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, marking a significant milestone in the defence, aerospace, and security industry’s ongoing commitment to achieving net-zero by 2050.

Roke recognises the urgent need for businesses to take proactive measures in addressing climate change and is excited to leverage the practical guidance and support offered by JOSCAR.

Joining JOSCAR Zero is a significant milestone for Roke as we continue to evolve our sustainability strategy. This collaboration with Hellios through JOSCAR will provide us with valuable insights and best practices to accelerate our journey towards a sustainable future,” said Paul MacGregor, Managing Director of Roke.

Colin Maund, CEO of Hellios Information, commended Roke’s commitment, stating: “JOSCAR’s collaborative approach measures, manages, and cuts carbon emissions in the defence supply chain. Through community efforts and targeted advice, it builds on JOSCAR’s successful system, reducing redundancy and enhancing visibility. We’re especially mindful of supporting smaller suppliers throughout this process.”

Roke recently published its Carbon Reduction Plan as part of its commitment to achieving Net Zero emissions by 2050. Find out more here: https://www.roke.co.uk/media/asuiwsxf/carbon-reduction-plan-v1-1-feb-2024.pdf
