We’re very aware of the emissions resulting from the fuel we sell. While we have a responsibility to continue to meet New Zealanders’ energy needs now, we believe our role is to make alternative energy choices easier for our customers too. We’re also proud to contribute to work aimed at supporting local communities and the natural environment.

Our Community and Sustainability Strategy

Our 2030 Community and Sustainability Strategy provides a clear pathway for how Z aims to achieve meaningful social and environmental outcomes in areas that are most relevant to our business and the communities in which we live and operate. 

Our goals

Empower communities

We will actively support local communities in the locations where we operate, enabling more New Zealanders to live the lives they value and empower the young people of Aotearoa to reach their full potential.

Restore nature and well-being

We leverage our scale and unique capabilities to foster restorative and regenerative actions that have a positive impact on communities, nature, and inter-generational well-being.

Lead transition

We will take bold action in response to climate change to reduce our own impact, work with our customers, suppliers, and partners to reduce theirs and provide solutions that will enable New Zealanders to join us on the path to a low carbon future.

Helping us reach our goals 

We reckon it's important to make sure our stakeholders know how we're tracking against these goals. Check out our latest Annual Report and Climate Statements for more details on some of the related work underway. 

A progress update on two of our 2025 Action Focus Areas under our strategy: 

  • Through our community mahi, such asGood in the Hood, we've given away in excess of $10 million to local charities and organisations doing great things in their local neighbourhoods, right across Aotearoa New Zealand. 

  • We've established a $1 million annual biodiversity fund, focused on supporting biodiversity projects that are committed to restoring indigenous biodiversity at scale.
