Enterprise Holdings is a private car rental company based in Clayton, Missouri, USA. It operates through prominent subsidiaries such as Enterprise Rent-A-Car, National Car Rental, and Alamo Rent a Car. As of 2022, the company employs over 80,000 individuals globally. Its operations span across North America, Europe, and the Asia-Pacific region, with a significant presence in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Germany, France, and Spain.
In 2022, we set a goal to open qualified facilities with energy-efficient lighting products and to upgrade 20% of existing qualified facilities to more energy-efficient lighting products, such as LED. Many locations have implemented automated LED lighting and SMART building management systems that allow branch managers to monitor energy use data and remotely adjust settings like the thermostat and lighting. With ENGIE data, Enterprise Holdings is exploring renewable energy opportunities throughout its operations, particularly in Europe.
We’re building relationships to develop solutions for global challenges, including advancing clean bioenergy technology at the Enterprise Rent-A-Car Institute for Renewable Fuels alongside the Danforth Plant Science Center. The Enterprise Institute awards an annual seed grant that funds novel ideas to promote and sustain the use of plants and algae regionally and globally to address environmental and economic challenges.
We invested £1.8 million in a new flagship vehicle rental site in Leeds, U.K. in 2021. The branch includes sustainable infrastructure, and the building is partially powered by solar energy generated onsite.
With water usage in mind, this location also uses water recycling technology in its automated on-site car wash.
