A strategic commitment


For GDF SUEZ, sustainable development is both an ethical requirement and a growth driver. It means performing its functions responsibly and developing new services, thereby directly participating in the Group’s economic performance. Sustainable development is integrated at every level of decision-making.

 

 

 

 

Long-term strategy

 

GDF SUEZ has made sustainable development one of the cornerstones of its strategy. This initiative is incorporated into the development of long-term strategic processes.

 

 

Medium-term action plans

 

  • Every GDF SUEZ business line integrates sustainable development into its medium-term business plan.
  • The resulting action plan is prepared by the business line’s sustainable development manager.
  • The results, compiled into GDF SUEZ’s sustainable development scorecard, are analyzed to ensure that the sustainable development policy is being implemented throughout the Group.

 

 

Investment Committees’ procedures

 

Since 2010, for any new investment, 10 sustainable development criteria are examined by a Commitments Panel, including:

 

  • ethics,
  • CO2 emissions, 
  • social impact,
  • human resources,
  • environmental management of ecosystems,
  • cooperation with stakeholders,
  • health and safety.


This additional analysis considers the risks and opportunities generated by every new investment in terms of Sustainable Development.
