Eneco
Major Dutch energy company Eneco envisages a leading and distinctive position in the field of renewable energy. Between 2007 and 2010 Aidenvironment performed various assignments in support of this ambition. We facilitated internal workshops to create a common vision on biomass within the company. We subsequently advised Eneco on its sustainable biomass policy and developed various tools to implement this policy. These tools enable Eneco to identify sustainability risks in the early stages of sourcing new investment opportunities. In addition, Aidenvironment performed various on-the-ground sustainability assessments of investment in biomass production opportunities in developing countries.

Netherlands Centre for Indigenous Peoples
Indigenous peoples that are largely dependent on their natural environment for their livelihood are being hard hit by the increasing exploitation of natural resources to satisfy rising global economic demands and the many negative impacts this has on the high biodiversity of their territories.
This study is the first to systematically research and verify the suspected impact of the Dutch economy on the territories and well-being of indigenous peoples. Instigated by the Netherlands Centre for Indigenous People (NCIV), the study identifies and researches the most relevant sectors of the Dutch economy affecting indigenous peoples.
In support of this work, Aidenvironment conducted two case studies in Indonesia (one on timber and one on palm oil). To assess the challenges and opportunities for protecting the livelihoods and well-being of indigenous peoples vis a vis selected economic activities, the case studies take a look at both good and bad practices. In addition, Aidenvironment produced maps charting the production areas and indigenous territories.
