Leasing Company of the Year

This award will be presented to the leasing company that has made the biggest strides towards environmental considerations in its leasing policies.

Winner: LeasePlan
LeasePlan UK works with some of the largest and most prestigious fleets in the country, and strives to deliver genuine answers to some of today's most critical business problems.

GreenPlan was globally introduced in 2007 and is based on a range of established principles, including offsetting vehicle emissions, careful selection of vehicles and fuel, scheduled servicing and maintenance, professional driver training and improved journey planning. Developed as a global initiative, verified by TüV Rheinland Group and supported by Intelligent Energy Europe (IEE), GreenPlan reflects LeasePlan's belief that companies can play a vital role in the reduction of CO2 emissions.

Partner company CO2OL, analyses fleet profiles and calculates the precise forest cover necessary to absorb the CO2 it produces. Forestry specialists Futuro Forestal then plant the corresponding number of trees in deforested areas of the Panamanian rainforests.

LeasePlan this year announced their partnership with Renault-Nissan in an initiative bringing electric mobility to the global markets. Under a Memorandum of Understanding, the two parties will study ways to promote the use of electric vehicles, and will investigate the options for a commercial approach towards corporate fleet customers. As well as in the UK, the Alliance has begun ZEV initiatives in Japan, Israel, Denmark, Portugal, France, Switzerland, Ireland and China. A provocative company whitepaper, available from the GreenPlan website and entitled ‘The Dangers of Not Going Green’ makes a compelling case for reducing the emissions from fleet vehicles.
