E3 International was founded in the late 1990s in response to the emergence of sustainability as a mainstream issue for business and a shift in the nature of environmental regulation – from traditional command and control measures to more subtle, more complex and more sophisticated approaches, often characterised by market based instruments and mechanisms.
Over the years it has grown into a niche international advisory, solutions and services group with expertise in:
- Climate change and emissions trading;
- Renewable energy and environmental technologies;
- Water; and
- Corporate sustainability and responsibility.
As a company we tend to focus on projects that combine sustainability with profitable commercial outcomes for our clients, often breaking new ground in the process.
We take a unique approach to all of our work in the environmental field:
- We are pragmatic, not ideological;
- We believe there is a place for innovation and growth;
- We recognise that we need to get the basics right and that getting it right can be a source of competitive advantage;
- We focus on the opportunities as well as the risks;
- We advocate an incremental approach - that there are different shades of green; and
- We understand that to make a good environmental case, you must make a good business case.
In doing so, we build strong and lasting relationships with our clients.
E3 has a presence in Australia and Europe, with professional staff located in Brisbane, Sydney, France and UK.
