Zitro has announced that the company has transitioned its Madrid-Pozuelo office to a 100% renewable electricity supply, reducing its carbon footprint and achieving zero emissions.

The company stated that "the commitment to clean energy demonstrates Zitro’s dedication to environmental responsibility." By switching to renewable sources, Zitro is actively reducing its Scope 2 emissions, contributing to a more sustainable planet.

The transition is estimated to result in annual savings of more than 30 tons of CO2. While the current emissions reduction is directly linked to the number of people and the office’s electricity use, Zitro stated that its commitment to renewable energy sources ensures continued zero emissions "even as the company grows."

“We are proud to implement this positive change at our Madrid-Pozuelo office,” said founder Johnny Viveiros Ortiz. “Sustainability is a core value at Zitro, and we are committed to minimizing our environmental footprint. This initiative represents a significant step forward in achieving our sustainability goals, with the expectation of reaching net zero in Spain by early 2025.”

 

"Zitro’s commitment to environmental responsibility extends beyond its energy consumption," a press release states. The company noted that it is exploring further ways to reduce its environmental impact throughout its operations, which includes implementing sustainable product development, manufacturing, and waste management practices.

Zitro earlier this month announced the creation of an Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) Corporate Committee; an Environment, Health, and Safety (EHS) department; and a dedicated department for Integrated Management Systems (IMS). These specialized teams will lead the company’s transformation towards a more sustainable business model, the casino gaming supplier said.

The ESG Committee will guide Zitro’s efforts in integrating sustainability practices across its operations, focusing on environmental responsibility, social impact, and ethical governance. Meanwhile, the EHS department oversees Environmental, Health, and Safety concerns, promoting sustainable practices, as well as social responsibility initiatives and circularity principles.
