Overview

Our commitment to a low-carbon future

We’re powering a truly sustainable future for ourselves and for our customers, without compromising on quality. Together, we can take charge of innovation, to find, create and deploy solutions which build a better tomorrow for everyone.

Every day, we are committed to ensuring the sustainability of our production processes and to safeguarding the environment. We work alongside local communities to ensure that the areas in which we operate are protected and to guarantee workplace safety.

To further increase the credibility of our ambition of being a global leading player in the challenges of decarbonisation, we are increasingly committed to promoting sustainable growth for the environment and individuals. The significant progress achieved in 2022 across nearly all ESG areas confirms we are on the right path.

Prysmian Group

Our Climate Change Ambition seeks to position Prysmian Group as one of the main technological players in the transition to low-carbon energy.

The climate strategy adopts “science-based” targets aligned with the Paris Agreement climate objectives. In particular, the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) defines the requirements for an effective Net-Zero strategy:

reduction of Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions to zero, or at least to a residual level consistent with achieving the global or sector targets set in line with the Paris Agreement (1.5°C);
neutralisation of any residual and GHG emissions released into the atmosphere.

As part of this initiative, Prysmian has taken the following actions:

definition of a short-term emissions-reduction target;
definition of a long-term emissions-reduction target;
launch of projects for the neutralisation of residual emissions.

Sustainability Report 2022

This year, for the first time, Prysmian Group has published the Sustainability Report as a stand-alone document. This mode of reporting allows us to explain Prysmian’s role as an enabler of the ecological transition and digitalisation processes. The Sustainability Report shows how Prysmian has become a leading player in this global transition, starting from its history and examining its performance, the ever-growing commitment to innovation and the extraordinary projects undertaken in every part of the world.

By providing further analysis, the Sustainability Report complements the Integrated Annual Report, comprising the Integrated Financial Report and the Non-Financial Statement, in which financial and non-financial information is integrated in a systemic approach covering strategy, governance, production activities, financial performance and social, environmental and economic interactions.

Prysmian uses the Sustainability Report to tell all Stakeholders, in a coherent, rigorous and engaging manner, how environmental and social sustainability have become central to the Group’s activities.

This document also represents the Communication on Progress (COP) of the Prysmian Group’s UN Global Compact. From an accounting standpoint, the Sustainability Report supplements the contents of the Non-Financial Statement subjected to a limited examination by an auditing firm, in accordance with the International Standard on Assurance Engagements (ISAE 3000 Revised).
