Investing in the future means acting every day to leave a sustainable legacy to the next generation. Therefore, we have developed policies and protocols in the environmental, social and governance areas to integrate stakeholders, employees, suppliers, shareholders and our local community, can create a positive impact in the environment and society.
Guided by universal principles in the areas of labor, human rights, environment, governance and transparency, the group is an UN Global Compact signatory committed to the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
We believe actions speak louder than words. That’s why we invest in real and transparent actions to protect the environment and to maintain an honest relationship with employees, clients, suppliers and the whole society.
Formed by a multidisciplinary team, with professionals from HR, governance, commercial, operations, financial, engineering, shared services and independent consultants, the ESG Committee is responsible for establishing, implementing and keeping the goals and challenges contained in Urca Energy Group’s conduct policies and for measuring the impact in the environmental, social and governance areas.
Also, every policy follows an implementation plan, according to the Integrity and Compliance Program, so we can involve and train the whole staff members.
Besides governance, other initiatives are under development:
Partnering with NINT, Latin America’s biggest ESG consulting and evaluation company.
The Urca Energia Group has been publishing its companies’ emissions inventories for three years, in accordance with the guidelines of the Brazilian GHG Protocol Program, conducted in partnership with FGV. The latest inventories for the Urca Energia Group and Gás Verde, launched in August 2024, are available for consultation at https://registropublicodeemissoes.fgv.br/
The plan will offer opportunities for social investments and incentive laws for Urca Energia Group. Therefore, we’re partners with Instituto Criança, an organization specialized in managing, implementing and supporting social projects.
By correctly managing the urban residue, we prevent the GHG emissions in the atmosphere and also create biomethane and green CO2 according to the circular economy. These solutions are the sustainable and economic replacements for fossil fuels and are paving the way to the energetic transition of several companies in Brazil.
