Sustainability[edit]

In July 2010 Bank of New Zealand became the first bank in New Zealand to become carbon neutral. The achievement was announced in September 2010 after a three-year initiative to reduce emissions through greater energy and vehicle efficiency, encouraging changed behaviour by employees at work and at home and through offsetting of unavoidable emissions by purchasing quality carbon credits.[14] The most visible aspect of the initiative came through the construction of three brand new, energy efficient buildings to house the bulk of the company’s management and administration staff. Two of these building are located in the Auckland CBD, one at Quay Park and the other at 80 Queen Street. The third is the Harbour Quays complex on the Wellington waterfront.[15] The Deloitte Centre at 80 Queen Street was tagged "the greenest building in the land"[16] after it became the first building in New Zealand to receive three Five Green Stars awards.[17] The BNZ Quay Park building was nominated for a BeST Design Award in 2008 for Offices and Workplace Environments.[18]
