Decarbonize Program: "Case study of integrating the theme of decarbonization in industry"“

Logo da Parceira

Decarbonization goes beyond reducing or eliminating emissions. It requires reinventing the business model and organizational culture. It is with this principle that the Decarbonize Program was born, a pioneering program in the market capable of promoting transformation throughout the value chain, integrating processes and ensuring that the topic is present in all decisions, in strategic areas and in operations, driving a cultural shift towards building a low-carbon future. The program demonstrates that it is possible to align decarbonization with value creation, financial return, and positive impact.

Complete transformation of the value chain for a low-carbon future.

Methodology

The program establishes that the topic of decarbonization should be known and discussed naturally by everyone. Therefore, the topic permeates all areas and sectors of the Company, including supply chain, production, R&D, controlling, engineering, and others. The topic should be present in all activities and processes. In this way, the Decarbonize Program strengthens organizational resilience and demonstrates that it is possible to integrate decarbonization into business processes, reviewing operations and promoting an operational and strategic transformation with a positive environmental impact, financial return, and potential replicability.

Decarbonization integrated into all areas and processes of the company.

Results

The program proves that integrated decarbonization is a driver of efficiency, innovation, profitability, and cultural transformation, capable of generating consistent and replicable results in organizations. Since the beginning of the journey, significant results have been achieved in reducing carbon emissions. In 2024, the Company recorded a reduction of 18% compared to the base year of 2020 for scopes 1 and 2. Supplier engagement is a strategic component of the Decarbonize Program, strengthening the value chain, promoting sustainable practices, reliability, risk reduction, and opportunity capture. Despite the challenges of scaling actions in units with different operational and technological profiles, the program has generated multiplier effects, impacting employees, leadership, and efficiency results, contributing to the construction of a low-carbon economy.

A reduction of 18% in scope 1 and 2 emissions since 2020.
