FCC Construcción publishes the greenhouse gas report

FCC Construcción publishes the greenhouse gas report

FCC Construcción has published the greenhouse gas report for financial year 2019. In the current context, in which climate change has become one of the main environmental challenges, we firmly believe that a responsible and committed company like FCC Construcción must position itself as a fundamental agent in the definition and implementation of solutions to climate change. For this reason, FCC Construcción established among its 2017-2020 Management Objectives a specific objective related to climate change; Specifically, it was proposed to extend the verification of the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions inventory to the international level, so that by 2020 100% of the activity will be verified, under the ISO 14064-1 Standard.

FCC Construcción began its Climate Change Strategy in 2010, with the design and implementation of a protocol for the quantification of Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions under construction. Since then, the company prepares and verifies its GHG emissions report annually, being the first Spanish construction company to have it verified by an independent third party and counting, since 2012, with the Carbon Footprint certificate “Environment CO2 verified”, which certifies both the accuracy of the calculation and the inclusion of GHG management in the organization's system and strategy.

This initiative was awarded in 2012 with a second prize in the category "Management for sustainable development" of the European Environmental Awards, awarded by the Entorno Foundation.
