Sustainability

Prysmian’s ambition is to be the leading technology player in the transition to a low-carbon economy, and our investments are aimed at constantly improving the sustainability of the entire value chain.

Ambition that we nurture every day with concrete actions: energy efficiency, responsible use of natural resources (raw materials and water), optimization of logistic flows, proper waste management, protection of biodiversity.

Prysmian’s climate strategy adopts science-based targets, which are aligned with the Paris Agreement climate ambition in the scenario of limiting global warming to 1.5°C. Specifically, in defining its commitment to Net Zero emissions, Prysmian adopts the protocol defined by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) which calls for:

• the reduction of Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions to zero, or at least to a residual level consistent with the minimum ambition under the Paris Agreement
• the removal of any residual greenhouse gas emissions.

Within this initiative, Prysmian has taken the following actions:

1. definition of an overall Net Zero target for its own emissions;
2. definition of a short-term emissions-reduction target;
3. definition of a long-term emissions-reduction target.
