Demonstration projects

THE THINKING BEHIND OUR INDICATORS

One of our major objectives is to demonstrate sustainability and good design in our projects. We do this in a variety of ways, one of which is to develop and demonstrate innovations in one of our projects and then roll these “road tested” innovations out more broadly across suitable projects.

We report on our demonstration projects. While this indicator has no target, the results for the reporting period are listed in the table below.
