Equans Belux, a leader in the energy transition and sustainability, is proud to announce that it has achieved Level 5 certification on the CO₂ Performance Ladder. This distinction highlights the company’s strong commitment to reducing CO₂ emissions and embedding sustainability into its operations.
What is the CO₂ Performance Ladder?
The CO₂ Performance Ladder is an environmental management system that evaluates companies based on their efforts to reduce their carbon footprint. After a pilot phase in Belgium’s three regions, the system will be officially integrated into public procurement in 2025. Achieving Level 5 demonstrates the concrete actions and significant results Equans Belux has achieved in managing its carbon emissions.
" This certification is the result of a year of hard work and investment in continuously improving our processes and projects to minimise the environmental impact of our activities. It not only confirms our commitment to reaching our climate goals, but also our ambition to lead the energy transition for our clients. "
Mark Dirckx, CEO Equans BeLux.
Over the past year, Equans Belux has implemented a wide range of initiatives to reduce its carbon footprint—optimising energy systems and integrating sustainable solutions across its infrastructure projects. This certification is a major milestone on the road to long-term sustainability.
"With this Level 5 certificate, Equans Belux joins the ranks of sustainability leaders in the construction sector. We warmly congratulate them on this remarkable achievement and hope many Belgian companies will follow their example."
Silke Hoebeek, Project Manager CO₂ Performance Ladder at BENOR.
The integration of the CO₂ Performance Ladder into public procurement processes across Belgium strengthens Equans Belux’s role as a pioneer in the energy transition and environmental responsibility.
Equans Belux remains firmly committed to supporting its clients on their own sustainability journeys—and to building a greener, more responsible future.
