Responsible Consumption

GRI 3-3

Expert RA takes into account environmental aspects in its daily activities, paying attention to the reasonable consumption of resources. In the future, it is planned to develop programmes for the greening of office processes and increasing the environmental literacy of employees.

Expert RA cares about saving natural resources and has undertaken a number of initiatives to reduce resource consumption and waste generation.

Electricity and Heat Consumption

At present, Expert RA has achieved its goal of a 100-% transition to energy-saving lamps. We also do our best to promptly update our equipment to make it more energy efficient, environmentally friendly, and meeting international standards.

Electricity consumption, kWh
Consumption of heat energy, Gcal

The increase in electricity and heat consumption is due to the increase in the number of employees working in the office.

Water Consumption

MED 13, MED 15, MED 16

Expert RA is a responsible water consumer, ensuring water supply and water consumption in line with its agreements with the Moscow City’s authorised services through centralised municipal systems.

Water consumption

In 2024, the water consumption totalled 332 m3, and specific (per employee) water consumption was 2.3 m3/person. The level of water consumption is directly correlated with the frequency of office visits by employees. The increase in water consumption in 2022–2024 was due to workers returning to the office to work in a hybrid (office / home) mode after the lifting of COVID-19 restrictions. On the other hand, a significant decrease in water consumption in 2020–2021 was due to the COVID-19 pandemic and shift to remote working. Wastewater treatment to prescribed standards is done at municipal wastewater treatment plants.

Paper Consumption

Expert RA strives to minimise the use of paper in its operations, reducing both its consumption volumes and waste generation. The Agency is implementing digital solutions, including developing an electronic document management system for internal interaction with employees and work with external contractors.

Thanks to these measures, in 2024, Expert RA's paper consumption volume decreased by 13% compared to 2023 and amounted to 388.6 kg.
