EV Provider Wins Green Business Award at 2025 Wales Business Awards
Cardiff-based electric vehicle (EV) provider, FleetEV, has won the Green Business Award at the 2025 Wales Business Awards. Founded in 2021, FleetEV focuses on making the switch to EVs practical and efficient through comprehensive leasing, salary sacrifice, and fleet solutions tailored to diverse client needs, across public and private sectors. As the lead supplier on the Welsh Government Commercial Delivery (WGCD) framework for electric vehicle provision, FleetEV has delivered significant impact, saving the Welsh public sector over £1.2 million in the past year alone while pledging to generate £2.5 million in social value during 2024/25. The net zero business was recognised as the leading green business that adopted innovative and effective eco-friendly practices, leading to measurable reductions in their carbon output and a positive environmental and business impact. Jarrad Morris, Founder and CEO at FleetEV, said: 'We are incredibly proud to be recognised as Wales's leading green business. The Wales Business Awards highlight the best of Welsh business, and to be counted among them is an honour. 'From the outset, our mission has been to support businesses and public sector organisations in making the transition to electric vehicles as seamless and impactful as possible. We believe sustainability should never be a compromise – it should be an advantage. This award reinforces that belief and reflects the hard work of our team, the strength of our partnerships, and the trust our clients have placed in us. 'As we look ahead, we remain committed to delivering innovative, data-driven solutions that not only reduce emissions but also create measurable value, economically, environmentally, and socially. We're proud to be a green business, through and through, and this recognition is a milestone in our journey to help drive Wales toward a net zero future.' Gus Williams, Interim CEO at Chambers Wales South East, South West and Mid, said: 'Congratulations to FleetEV on winning the Green Business Award at this year's Wales Business Awards. In a highly competitive category filled with exceptional businesses, FleetEV stood out for their ambition, drive, rapid growth and success in a competitive market, but what really impressed us was their wider approach – the desire to have a positive impact with all their stakeholders, including their community work and support of local schools and sports, in particular.'

Cyber Acoustics Named Clark County Green Business
Certification validates the company's commitment to the community and the environment Cyber Acoustics Receives Green Business Award VANCOUVER, Wash., Jan. 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cyber Acoustics, a leading provider of technology solutions for education, business, and personal use, today announced it has been certified as a Clark County Green Business, which recognizes businesses in Washington's Clark County for environmental excellence through onsite assistance and verification of green business practices. The Clark County Green Business Program is coordinated by Celina Montgomery through Clark County Public Health's Solid Waste and Environmental Outreach team. 'To achieve recognition as a Clark County Green Business, companies must show a strong commitment to managing waste streams responsibly, minimizing their environmental footprint, and fostering a healthy workplace for their employees,' said Montgomery, Environmental Outreach Specialist Senior at Clark County Green Business. 'Cyber Acoustics demonstrated impressive effort in managing its waste streams and operations, as well as taking guidance on possible improvements we noted during our initial assessment. This dedication to sustainability, coupled with the effective practices they already have in place, makes Cyber Acoustics a deserving recipient of a Clark County Green Business certification.' Cyber Acoustics No-Cost Recycling Program In 2021 Cyber Acoustics launched a recycling program for schools as a way for them to easily dispose of broken or unused wired headsets. Today, due to program success, Cyber Acoustics now takes wired and wireless headphones, headsets, and earbuds from any brand, and ensures they are properly recycled. To date the program has diverted more than 30,000 pounds of e-waste from landfills. In addition, these recycling initiatives offset approximately 29 percent of the company's carbon footprint.

The company also utilizes recycled materials in packaging, with a focus on creating efficient packaging to achieve minimal size, leading to the use of fewer trucks and fewer containers. 'At Cyber Acoustics we have always believed we have a responsibility to be good stewards of our planet, and we have considered every aspect of our business and how we can do better,' said Steve Erickson, COO at Cyber Acoustics. 'Some changes are small and easy to make, like updating lights to more energy efficient options, and some require more thoughtful planning and execution, like our redesigned packaging and the implementation of more than 50 percent recycled plastics into our entire line of education headsets, but big or small, every improvement matters and the result ends up being greater than the sum of its parts. We are committed to ongoing sustainability and will continue to make every effort to ensure we are doing our part.'
