We are also committed to implementing ISO 50001 (Energy Management System) across our business and
to using energy more efficiently. To achieve this, the primary focus will be on the energy usage at our
sites in Cabinteely, specifically the IT and Operations Centres, with ambitions to roll out across the
business in the future. Bank of Ireland recognises the importance of energy efficiency and is making
available all the necessary information and appropriate resources to achieve the above objectives and
targets
In line with the Bank of Ireland Group Code of Conduct (January 2011), we will also “comply with the law,
any applicable regulatory directives and all relevant codes of practice” with respect to energy
management. This compliance will extend to all Group policies and commitments and any external
commitments, such as our participation in SEAI’s SWG or LIEN programmes.
