Tenova’s new Sustainability Report underscores the company’s commitment to a sustainable future, as it spearheads innovative solutions that drive decarbonization and promote responsible practices
Tenova launches today its 2023 Sustainability Report, which tracks the company’s progress against its sustainability agenda. The Report illustrates the company’s ESG-guided sustainability framework, including energy efficiency initiatives, circular economy solutions, and sustainable innovation.
Tenova’s Sustainability Report FY23 reconfirms the company’s long-term ambition to work together with its customers, suppliers, and stakeholders to decarbonize the metals sector and advance the global transition towards more responsible practices. Indeed, its flagship technologies – Direct Reduction Iron (DRI), Electric Arc Furnaces (EAFs), and the Silicon Steel ones – are key to the decarbonization of both the metals industry and the planet, as seen with Tenova’s major international projects that are set to make a substantial impact on sustainability in Europe, China, and other parts of the world.
Additionally, the report details the steps the company has taken to mitigate and measure its own environmental impact, while continuing to drive positive change for its customers, employees, and communities.
Tenova CEO
“At Tenova, we firmly believe that the real value we bring to the sustainability table lies in our human capital – the specialized competencies of our team are our greatest and most valuable asset. It is because of our people that we are able to make such significant strides, designing technologies that help our clients face today’s challenges. Our role is clear. We can proudly say that we are fulfilling it by developing accessible and cost-effective technologies that propel decarbonization, and remain firmly committed to furthering sustainable practices for the betterment of our planet and society.”
The company’s Report highlights Tenova’s achievements in the past year and its ongoing initiatives and pledges to protect people and the planet. These include:
- Successfully using OnlyPlastic, an injection technology able to produce steel from the residues of waste plastic treatment plants, resulting in a lower environmental impact in terms of CO2 emissions and reduction of landfilling;
- Installing a 980 kW new-generation photovoltaic plant for the company’s headquarters in Castellanza. The high-efficiency monocrystalline silicon panels are able to generate up to 1,000 MWh annually, amounting to around 30% of the Campus’s annual energy consumption;
- Rolling out new mandatory Health and Safety training at project sites, with BU Upstream Italy as a pilot project;
- Expanding its TenovaLAB facilities for the installation of a water electrolysis unit connected to solar panels;
- Implementing employee wellness services and awareness through ad hoc disseminations and programs.
