Home Case Studies Lexus Australia certified carbon neutral launch event
The Situation
Lexus Australia is a division of Toyota Motor Corporation Australia, a wholly owned subsidiary of Toyota Motor Corporation. Lexus vehicles are sold in 70 countries around the world.
Lexus Australia set out to achieve carbon neutrality for its marketing launch of the all-new fully electric UX 300e. The certification covered all relevant activities classified under a large ‘portfolio of events’.
Lexus engaged Anthesis (formerly Ndevr Environmental) to provide the specialist services required to make the launch campaign carbon neutral under the Government’s Climate Active Event Standard.
Our Solutions
A key element of the project was to adapt the rigorous Climate Active standard to match the diverse activities of the launch campaign and create a customised carbon account. This involved a heightened level of complexity due to the varied nature of the components involved which included:
- Office based work (Lexus team and various agencies)
- Melbourne Cup Carnival activities (including Melbourne Cup Tour)
- Dealer Meetings
- PR Events, Media Executions and Press fleet
- Customer Event and Shopping Centre Activations
- Asset production (TV and Stills)
Each of these categories included an array of different activities and emissions sources.
Anthesis worked closely with Lexus to source the varied data required to validate the baseline, create carbon inventories to develop an emissions profile and identify reductions. Anthesis also assisted with sourcing and surrendering carbon offsets and driving a new and complex accreditation process.
