This is to be achieved by transitioning to renewable energy sources where feasible and utilising Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) or Energy Attribute Certificates otherwise. Swissquote aims to improve the energy efficiency of its headquarters buildings by 10% over a ten-year period between 2016 and 2026.

This target is actively being pursued, with the company having made progress towards its goals. The latest sustainability reports indicate that Swissquote is on track for its near-term targets.
