Our approach to the environment

Global focus on energy security, efficiency, productivity and sustainability play to our strengths in industrial engineering. Our solutions support industries to operate more efficiently, reduce emissions and leakage, move to alternative lower carbon energy sources and capture and sequestrate carbon.

And we have set our own ambitious environmental targets to move quickly towards Net Zero and minimise our overall impact, including in our value chain.

2040

Net Zero operational emissions (SBTi)

2050

Net Zero value chain emissions (SBTi)
