SUSTAINABILITY REPORT 2021
SUSTAINABILITY REPORT 2021
According to estimates, this fuel emits 27% less CO2 than oil and 44%
less than coal. In addition, the company developed a heat recirculation
system for the ovens, which supplied up to 20% of the energy demanded
by the atomizers, reducing the consumption of natural gas.
Natural gas was also used as an energy source for more than 90% of the
vehicles that move materials in the factories.
In 2019, Portobello made its greenhouse gas inventory for the first time,
which in 2020 was expanded, covering scopes 1, 2 and 3 of emissions.
In 2021, direct emissions (scope 1) of greenhouse gases (GHG) were
216,248 metric tons of CO2 equivalent against 191,390 metric tons of
CO2 equivalent in 2020. Indirect emissions, from scopes 2 and 3, will be
obtained until the end of the first half of 2022. This increase reflects the
expansion of production, as the units operated at 100% of production
capacity in the period.
Affirmative actions to contribute to climate change control are part of
Portobello's ESG planning for the period from 2022 to 2026. Targets are
being defined, but will be related to increasing resilience and adaptability
to related risks, increasing of institutional and human capacity on
mitigation and impact reduction, to awareness and conservation of
ecosystems, including biodiversity.
