After a competitive tender process, Deloitte UK selected a new energy broker and conservation consultant to help ensure that 100 percent of purchased energy is classified as green. The firm has set a further target of a minimum 10 percent from 'dark' green sources (from wind, solar or other renewable sources). The firm has also reached agreement with the UK government's Carbon Trust to implement its Carbon Management program.

Deloitte UK is also working with the builders and architects of its London campus to minimize the environmental impact of both new and refurbished buildings. The buildings’ design will reduce energy and water consumption, automatic controls will minimize energy consumption, and use of renewable materials is being optimized. In addition, implementation of a campuswide recycling scheme enables the recycling of over 70 percent of office waste.
