865 GJ reduction
in
corporate
energy
consumption
from
08/09
baseline energy
levels
Achieve 11% or
1,190
GJ
reduction
in

41,654
litre
reduction
in
corporate
fuel
consumption
from
08-09
baseline
fuel
levels
Achieve 8% or
55,539
litre
reduction
in

fuel
consumption
from
08-09
baseline
fuel
levels
Achieve 10% or
69,423
litre
reduction
in
corporate
fuel
consumption from
08-09 baseline fuel
levels
NOTE
*The long-term 2020 objective for greenhouse gas emissions (70%) is due to the accumulation of reductions from the energy and fleet fuel
sectors for the long term 2020 objective.
** The 4 year objective for greenhouse gas emissions (25%) is due to the accumulation of reductions from the energy and fleet fuel sectors.
