Environment

Contributing to a regenerative world

Our main contribution to the planet is our work to accelerate the energy transition. We are deeply conscious about the importance of our activities as a key driver for a better and regenerative world. For this reason, we actively contribute to the preservation of the environment and natural resources and to the sustainable development.

Accordingly, we have an Environmental Policy that promotes environmental protection and integrates it into the decision-making processes at the different stages of development, construction, operation, and decommissioning of infrastructure, and therefore contributing to the preservation of natural resources and to sustainable development.

Environmental Policy

We recognise the Environment as a strategic management element, aiming to reduce the impacts and dependencies of our activity through a set of commitments focusing on Climate, Circular economy and Biodiversity, that ensure the implementation and maintenance of appropriate and effective environmental management systems.
