ENGIE has been recognized for its actions in the last reporting year to cut emissions, mitigate climate risks and contribute to the development of a low-carbon economy, based on its 2018 disclosure to CDP. At the end of 2017, ENGIE reduced its direct CO2 emissions by 26% compared to 2016 and reduced its ratio of emissions from energy production by 18% compared to 2012, bringing the Group significantly closer to its reduction target of - 20% in 2020.
On this occasion, ENGIE CEO Isabelle Kocher declared: “CDP’s recognition of ENGIE’s actions in favor of corporate climate actions for the 3rd time in a row, rewards the Group’s transformation plan launched in 2016. ENGIE successfully pursued its strategic repositioning to lead the energy transition and we firmly believe that it will be achieved through harmonious development towards a world that is increasingly decarbonized, decentralized and digitalized.”
