Objectives and actions

We want to contribute to a sustainable and fair energy future that generates shared opportunities for growth.

We are committed to integrating sustainability principles into our business strategies (link to business plan in investors) and to developing a sustainability plan for the environment, the territory and the environment all our stakeholders.
