Enterprise Holdings announced its newest five-year goals for its businesses on Monday, included in its fiscal year 2015 sustainability report.

Within the report, titled The Business of Sustainability, the operators of well-known companies such as Enterprise Rent-A-Car, National Car Rental and Alamo Rent A Car built on their last five years of sustainability results and set new goals through its 2020 fiscal year.

"These new goals reflect a fresh look at our priorities based on conversations with our many stakeholders and leadership teams," said Pam Nicholson, president and chief executive officer at Enterprise Holdings.

The goals Enterprise Holdings listed include the following:

• Waste: Reduce companywide paper use 40 percent by FY 2020.
• Greenhouse Gas Emissions (GHG): Reduce Scope 1 (direct GHG from owned operations) and Scope 2 (indirect GHG from consumption of purchased electricity, heat and/or steam) greenhouse gas emissions 10 percent by FY 2020.
• Energy: Reduce annual direct and indirect energy use and related costs, compared to the previous year.
• Water: Reduce annual water use (per vehicle wash), compared to the previous year.
• Workforce Development: Continue investing in the workplace by providing an average of at least three days' professional development annually per full-time management employee, and also encouraging all employees to attend relevant company sessions, events, programs and forums.

"We still firmly believe providing long-term benefits and seamless solutions to customers, partners and communities is the key to sustainability in the transportation and travel sector," said Brad Carr, vice president of corporate business development for Enterprise Holdings. "However, we're also seeing more and more contract-related questions about top-line sustainability issues. That means we work to help organizations better understand the long-term impact of corporate travel in terms of cost, plus environmental considerations, efficiency and duty of care."

Looking back at the 2010-2015 fiscal years, Enterprise Holdings listed the following achievements in the area of sustainability:

• Energy: Reduced natural gas consumption 14.8 percent and cut electricity use 19.1 percent, compared with FY 2010 baseline. Figures have been calculated using same-store and weather-normalized data (excluding new locations and branch offices where an external landlord is responsible for utility bills).
• Greenhouse Gas Emissions (GHG): Achieved a 10.1 reduction in Scope 1 emissions and a 31.2 percent reduction in Scope 2 emissions since FY 2010. Combined, Enterprise Holdings reduced its GHG emissions intensity 18.6 percent.
• Alternative-Fuel Shuttle Buses: Converted 98 percent of airport shuttle buses to biodiesel, synthetic diesel, compressed natural gas or hybrid models since FY 2010.
• Enterprise Sustainable Construction Protocol (ESCP) Guidelines: Invested more than $150 million, including thousands of new and retrofitted construction projects, since FY 2010.
• Product Lifecycle: Recycled 1.4 million gallons of oil and more than 1 million oil filters for its fleet last year, representing 95 percent of the oil and virtually all of the filters used in its North American service centers.
