RTÉ is committed to the highest level of energy reduction and sustainability, both in the management of existing infrastructure and the development of new infrastructure. These plans have been informed by the National Energy Efficiency Action Plan 2009 – 2020, which demands that the public sector be seen to “lead by example through strong committed action.” WATCH our Green Broadcaster story here. RTÉ recently became the first broadcaster in Ireland and UK to achieve ISO 50001 standard. The ISO 50001 standard was developed to support organisations committed to efficient energy management to address their impact, conserve resources and achieve cost and emissions reductions. RTÉ, by increasing energy efficiency by 51.8%, has exceeded the targets set for the public sector in the National Energy Efficiency Action Plan (NEEAP) – to reduce increase energy efficiency by 33% by 2020. The following factors have been central to RTÉ’s successes in energy management: - Energy metering and monitoring to identify areas for energy improvement. - Building Management System development to ensure efficient system operations & scheduling. - Extensive use of renewals, including LED lighting, high efficiency heating and cooling systems. - Investment in energy projects, such as photovoltaic solar panel roof projects on RTÉ’s Donnybrook campus. - To date this photovoltaic solar panel system has generated 81 MWh of renewable electricity – the equivalent of powering the production lighting and air conditioning requirements of 58 Late Late Shows. In order to drive continual improvements in environmental performance, RTÉ has established a Green Broadcaster Advisory Group – a configuration of colleagues and external agencies (such as the EPA and SEAI) and external partners (such as Screen Producers Ireland). This helps to plan to the highest standards possible, and leverage external support or ratification where appropriate. Areas of focus include; waste management/prevention; energy consumption and carbon reduction, water conservation, biodiversity and pollution prevention RTÉ has also taken a leadership role in collaborating with relevant external stakeholders and peer broadcasters (such as TG4 and Virgin Media) to adopt the standards of Project Albert. Originally in operation in the UK, Albert is a collaborative BAFTA, independent production and broadcaster backed bespoke project that provides the film and TV industries with the necessary expertise and opportunities to take action on environmental sustainability. The project aim is to ensure screen content is made in a way that benefits individuals, industry organisations and the planet. Its core objectives are - to reduce the environmental impact of the production process; - to enable industry organisations to realise the environmental aspect of their stated vision and its implication for audience engagement. RTÉ anticipates that we will make significant progress in the rollout of Albert within the organisation, and collectively within the broadcasting sector this year.

Tá RTÉ tiomanta i leith an leibhéil is airde laghdaithe úsáide fuinnimh agus inbhuanaitheachta i dtaca le bainistiú an bhonneagair láithrigh agus i dtaca le forbairt bonneagair nua de araon. Le linn na pleananna ina leith sin a ullmhú baineadh úsáid as faisnéis atá ann sa Phlean Gníomhaíochta Náisiúnta um Éifeachtúlacht Fuinnimh 2009 – 2020 ina n-éilítear gurb ionann an earnáil phoiblí agus earnáil “a léiríonn ceannaireacht ar mhodh sampla a thabhairt trí bhíthin gníomhaíochtaí láidre tiomanta”. Tá iarracht déanta ag RTÉ feidhmiú de réir an chaighdeáin sin ar raon bealaí éagsúla lena n-áirítear an méid seo a leanas: - Grianphainéil a shuiteáil rud as ar lean fritháirimh shuntasacha charbóin - Oiliúint bhainistíochta fuinnimh a chur ar fáil chun feabhas a chur ar chumas na heagraíochta i dtaca le féininiúchadh agus féinfhaireachán de. - Tuairisciú a dhéanamh maidir le caighdeáin SEAI (táimid fós sa riocht go gcomhlíonfaimid gealltanas sonraithe SEAI 2020). Chun feabhsuithe leanúnacha ar fheidhmíocht chomhshaoil a chur ar aghaidh, tá Grúpa Comhairleach Craoltóra Ghlais bunaithe ag RTÉ – is é sin le rá, grúpa ina gcuimsítear comhghleacaithe agus gníomhaireachtaí seachtracha (amhail an EPA agus an SEAI) agus comhpháirtithe seachtracha (amhail Screen Producers Ireland). Is cabhair é an méid sin maidir le pleanáil a dhéanamh de réir na gcaighdeán is airde agus is féidir agus is cabhair é ó thaobh tacaíocht sheachtrach nó daingniú seachtrach a fháil más cuí sin. Áirítear an méid seo a leanas i measc na réimsí ar díríodh orthu: bainistiú/cosc dramhaíola; tomhailt fuinnimh agus laghdú carbóin; caomhnú uisce; bithéagsúlacht; agus truailliú a chosc. Tá ról ceannaireachta glactha chuige féin ag RTÉ freisin maidir le comhoibriú le geallsealbhóirí seachtracha iomchuí agus le piara-chraoltóirí (amhail TG4 agus Virgin Media) d’fhonn caighdeáin Thionscadal Albert a ghlacadh. Cuireadh Albert i bhfeidhm sa Ríocht Aontaithe ar dtús agus is tionscadal comhoibríoch neamhspleách BAFTA agus craoltóir-bhunaithe é a sholáthraíonn an oilteacht riachtanach agus na deiseanna riachtanacha do na tionscail scannánaíochta agus teilifíse chun gníomh a dhéanamh maidir le hinbhuanaitheacht chomhshaoil. Is é is aidhm don tionscadal a chinntiú go gcruthaítear ábhar scáileáin ar mhodh a théann chun tairbhe do dhaoine aonair, d’eagraíochtaí tionscail agus don phláinéad. Seo a leanas a chuid croí-phrionsabail: - laghdú a dhéanamh ar thionchar comhshaoil an phróisis léiriúcháin; - a chumasú d’eagraíochtaí de chuid an tionscail an ghné chomhshaoil dá bhfís shonraithe a bhaint amach agus na himpleachtaí atá ann maidir le rannpháirteachas ar thaobh an lucht féachana/éisteachta. Measann RTÉ go ndéanfaimid dul chun cinn suntasach maidir le Albert a chur i bhfeidhm laistigh den eagraíocht, agus laistigh den earnáil chraolacháin i gcoitinne, sa bhliain 2019.
