Galp recognised for its actions on climate change and water security

Galp was again identified as a global leader in corporate sustainability and has been awarded a position on this year’s A List for both climate and water by CDP, the widely recognised non-profit global environmental disclosure platform.

The Company is one of only 25 companies to score the highest rank (A) for both climate and water, and the only one in the energy sector achieving this recognition for its actions to manage environmental risks, cut carbon emissions and enhance water stewardship.

Galp is committed to the integration of measures that lead to a more efficient and sustainable use of the natural resources in all its operations. This prestigious achievement is the recognition of Galp’s strategy and environmental approach, as well as of its operational performance impacts disclosure policies.
