Climate footprint
Again we drew up our detailed CO2 footprint for all of wpd’s office locations for 2024. Since 2019, we have been using a professional computation program that ensures that we register the data in accordance with the internationally recognised standard of the Greenhouse Gas Protocol.
This means that we have collected data from 29 countries, 78 branches and almost 1,300 employees. The greenhouse gas emissions from our office locations, calculated in 2024, were offset through the purchase of emission reduction certificates from selected climate protection projects.
The reporting of the company’s internal CO2 emissions will continue on this scale on an annual basis.
In collaboration with the German non-profit organisation atmosfair, wpd supports the construction and operation of small biogas plants in Nepal. Beyond that, we are also engaged in Guatemala in a reforestation project, and in Pakistan in a solar lamps project. In Germany, we are supporting the rewetting of marshland in Mecklenburg Western Pomerania.
