DECARBONIZE ENGIE’S
OTHER ACTIVITIES
GHG emissions related to suppliers
(5% of the carbon footprint)
ENGIE is committed to supporting its
top 250 preferred suppliers (excluding
energy purchase) so that they are all
certified or aligned with the
Science
Based Target initiative by 2030.
This would cover 20% of the Group’s
purchases in terms of expenses.
At the end of 2022, 23% of the top 250
preferred suppliers were already
certified or aligned.
As a founding member of the First
Movers coalition – which aims to
accelerate the creation of a competitive
and carbon neutral supply chain –
ENGIE is committed to ensuring that
10% of its wind turbines will be made
of low-carbon steel by 2030.
In the second half of 2022, ENGIE
launched a dialog, primarily via the
suppliers day, with its 400 largest
suppliers in terms of GHG footprint
(28% of the purchasing carbon footprint)
in order to understand their maturity
with respect to decarbonization
(effective measure over their 3 scopes,
calculated figures and restrictions, etc.)
This will allow the launch, in the near
future, of the first industrial projects to
decarbonize the Group’s procurement.
Methane emissions from the gas
networks (1% of the carbon footprint)
The methane emissions related to gas
networks controlled or operated by
the Group are primarily due to venting
safety procedures.
ENGIE has been committed for many
years to reducing these methane
emissions which accounted for
1.3 Mt CO eq in 2022
.
In 2020, the Group’s French subsidiaries
(GrDF, GRTGaz, Elengy and Storengy)
joined the Oil & Gas Methane
Partnership 20 OMGP an initiative
managed by the United Nations
Environment Program which intends
to share an internationally recognized
reporting framework and minimize
the associated methane emissions
In this respect these operators were
classified in 2022 at the highest level
of commitment the gold standard
Today ENGIE is moving ahead and has
set a target of a worldwide reduction
of 30 in its methane emissions related
to its consolidated gas networks
transport distribution LNG terminals
and storage between 2017 and 2030
It should be noted that the management
of energy networks (electricity and gas)
involves GHG emissions whether it is
the losses of the electrical grids or the
methane emissions in the gas networks.
Thus, in France for example, these
networks result in fewer emissions
per MWh, despite the global warming
potential of the methane and the low
carbon intensity of the electricity.
Emissions related to ways of working
(0.15% of the carbon footprint)
ENGIE has set a Net Zero 2030 target
related to its ways of working.
The goal is to reduce the Group’s carbon
footprint related to the buildings, digital
tools and practices, travel, home-work
commutes and vehicle fleets.
Employees are involved in such
processes so as to identify and share
best practices. This approach is
complemented by an ongoing training
program and a review of the associated
Group policies (purchasing, real estate
and IT policies in particular).
Reaching net zero by 2030 will be made
possible thanks to two main levers:
-35% of the electricity consumption of
the buildings between 2019 and 2030
and 100% of vehicle replacements with
low-emission vehicles by 2030.
With the current energy crisis, ENGIE
also set up a sufficiency plan in 2022
designed to reduce the consumption
of buildings by 15% (winter period
in Europe), through measures related
to heating and air conditioning notably.
