As industry leaders in retirement living, sustainability is integral to Aveo’s mission.

Our Commitment to Net Zero by 2025

Our Commitment to Net Zero by 2025

Upholding the highest standards in ESG leadership, our strategy is grounded in transparency, accountability, and proactive engagement, driving meaningful change for residents and stakeholders.

What Does Net Zero Mean?

To achieve Net Zero (Scope 1 and Scope 2), Aveo is investing in community-wide initiatives, including solar energy installations, Electric Vehicle charging stations, and advanced energy-efficient technologies.

Understanding Scope 1 and Scope 2:

  • Scope 1 Emissions: Direct emissions from our operations, like fuel used by our vehicles and natural gas used for heating.
  • Scope 2 Emissions: Indirect emissions from the electricity we use, produced elsewhere.

We aim to reduce emissions from our activities and the energy we use, for our communities and our planet.
