Our role in
society
Our purpose is engineering a carbon-neutral future, and we have big ambitions to make a positive impact. In line with the ENGIE Group’s goal to achieve net zero carbon by 2045, we reduced our 2022 company emissions by 20% vs. 2019. Plans are in full swing for our ongoing initiatives. Going forward, we will continue to cut our emissions year-over-year as per COP21 recommendations, while neutralizing residual emissions. The success of our emissions reduction initiatives was officially recognized by Science-Based Targets initiative, a UN-backed global organization for ambitious corporate climate action. But our emissions goals are just the tip of the iceberg. Our corporate social responsibility (CSR) roadmap includes concrete actions gathered into four CSR Pillars: Environment, Labor Practices, Community Involvement, and Fair Operating Practices & Human Rights.
Thanks to these action plans, we aim to develop partnerships with local communities, annual solidarity projects, and implement zero-tolerance human rights and environmental standards across every link in our value chain.
We are Transition
Makers
The energy transition is no longer just a necessity, it has become an emergency. As part of ENGIE, Tractebel is proud to belong to a community of 96,000 women and men dedicated to accelerating the energy transition. We, at ENGIE, want to be the champion of zero carbon energies. We strongly believe that all decarbonization levers are necessary to succeed with the energy transition: no single technology can be the sole solution. We need both gas and electricity. We need engineering. Engineering plays a pivotal role in driving the energy
transition, serving as the catalyst for innovative solutions that propel us towards a carbon-neutral future by harnessing renewable sources, optimizing energy efficiency, and revolutionizing the way we generate, distribute, and store power. We are Transition Makers!
