As responsible and sustainable development is our driving force, in autumn 2021 we adopted the new ORLEN Group Sustainable Development Strategy 2021–2023, replacing our ORLEN Group CSR Strategy until 2022. Setting ambitious sustainability and CSR goals, the new strategy is closely linked to the CSR goals, the new strategy is closely linked to the ORLEN Group Business Strategy until 2030 launched in autumn 2020, which aims to build a multi-utility group and develop new lines of business. Through the Sustainable Development Strategy we pursue the ambitious goals of the Paris Agreement, UN 2030 Agenda and European Green Deal. We also respond to the growing expectations of investors, who increasingly pay attention to ESG rankings and reports that show actual commitment of companies to sustainability objectives.
We believe the measures we are taking today will contribute to protecting the planet and the welfare of future generations.
