Volta Joins Ad Net Zero as Founding Partner for
Ad Net Zero is an international organization committed to decarbonizing the advertising industry and using marketing’s power to accelerate consumers’ switch to more sustainable products and services. Across its regions, the organization counts more than 100 advertisers, agencies, commercial media owners, and production companies as supporters, with global members including IPG, Google, Havas, Omnicom, Meta, WPP, Sky, Pubmatic, Unilever, and Reckitt, among others. These supporters pledge to uphold Ad Net Zero’s 5-point action plan, which includes curtailing emissions from business operations, advertising production, media planning and buying, and awards and events, as well as utilizing advertising’s power to support consumer behavior change.
“Volta offers advertisers the opportunity to reach highly valuable audiences and measurably drive sales while directly supporting emissions-free, electric miles,” said
The Volta Media™ Network is the world’s largest DOOH network integrated into EV charging stations that support the transition to electric mobility. Every campaign featured across Volta’s network of more than 5,700 large-format digital screens directly supports charging sessions providing electric miles to drivers. To date, Volta has provided more than 150 million electric miles and avoided over 70 million pounds of CO2 emissions that would have otherwise been created by gas-powered vehicles.1
Shifting advertising budgets toward more sustainable platforms requires emissions data to be available during the media planning process. To enable agencies and brands to plan effectively, Volta recently made its campaign emissions calculator publicly available. This easy to use tool allows any advertiser to estimate the CO2 emissions a campaign on Volta’s media network would help avoid as a result of the electric miles it could provide for an EV driver.
In addition to directly supporting the transition to carbon-free electric mobility, campaigns displayed across Volta’s media network assist the transition to a grid powered by renewable energy. Volta purchases certified Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) equivalent to the amount of electricity used to power its network, giving sponsors confidence they are accelerating a clean transportation and energy future for all. Volta aims to purchase RECs generated in the same year as the electricity consumption, helping to support recently completed renewable energy projects.
In alignment with “Action 5” on Ad Net Zero’s action plan, Volta also leverages the power of its media network to accelerate sustainable consumer behaviors. In
“In 2022, the US media industry woke up to its emissions responsibilities. This year, the industry must start decarbonizing its operations and getting closer to net zero emissions,” said
