The events in Europe in 2022, correlated to Russia's invasion of Ukraine, have brought energy security and energy costs into focus as essential elements for our communities to be pursued alongside decarbonization. The challenge at the heart of the public debate is to find adequate answers to this trilemma in a context of extreme volatility, uncertainty and growing imbalances.
In this scenario, Eni has worked to contribute to European energy security. The company has pursued its path of transformation towards the decarbonization of products and services, leveraging a distinctive strategy based on geographical and technological diversification of energy sources, working with its stake- holders, and considering gas as a "bridge" energy source in the transition.
A few months after the outbreak of the war, we defined a series of agreements with our historical partners to diversify gas supplies to Italy and Europe, enabling us to replace 100% of the approximately 20 billion cubic metres previously supplied by Russia by 2025. This will be possible thanks to Eni's quick entry into production of its gas discoveries and the solidity of its rela-
tions with producing Countries. In this regard, in the last quarter of 2022, the first delivery of LNG produced by the Coral South field in Mozambique was completed, and we expect the first delivery of LNG from Congo as early as the end of this year.
At the same time, we remained firm in our commitment and our targets towards Carbon Neutrality by 2050, anchored on sound investments. We achieved a 17% reduction in Net GHG Lifecycle Emissions (Scope 1+2+3) compared to 2018. We continued implementing the necessary measures to achieve Scope 1+2 Net Zero emissions Upstream by 2030. We have worked to reduce our upstream emissions by investing in emission-reduction technologies and developing upstream low carbon projects. In particular, in April 2023, we launched the FPSO that will be used, as early as the middle of this year, for production from the Baleine deposit in Côte d'Ivoire, the most important discovery ever made in the Country and also the first Scope 1+2 Net Zero development in Africa.
We continue to invest in reducing methane emissions.
To provide effective answers to the energy trilemma and con-
tribute to providing abundant, affordable and environmentally sustainable energy, Eni has developed an innovative business and financial model that allows us to solve the problem of capital allocation, striking the right balance between investments and returns. The satellite business model envisages the creation of dedicated companies capable of independently accessing capital markets to finance their growth and able to exploit each business fully. These companies can access specialised capital pools, optimising Eni's financial structure while exploiting the technologies, know-how and services that Eni itself offers. In early 2023, Eni Sustainable Mobility became operational, offering progressively decarbonized products and services to reduce Scope 3 emissions in mobility, working alongside Plenitude, focused on increasing renewable capacity and providing decarbonized energy to end custom- ers. With different purposes, the satellite model was applied in some E&P geographic areas, through business combinations that resulted in deconsolidated companies whose significant investments are financed auton- omously, freeing up financial re-
We strongly believe in technological innovation as a driver to achieve our short-, medium- and long-term goals: proprietary technologies matured within traditional businesses and breakthrough technologies play a central role in Eni's decarbonization strate- gy. Among the former, Ecofining technology allows us to produce biofuels from biological origin waste and raw materials that do not compete with food use. In contrast, reservoir and storage technologies are used in synergy with depleted oil fields to develop effective CO2 capture and storage solutions. In addition, we connected the first system for generating electricity from wave power, another potentially inexhaustible energy source, to the island of Pantelleria's electricity grid. Finally, we have increased efforts to accelerate the development of breakthrough technologies such as fusion, whose implementation and penetration, in the long run, could reshape energy paradigms globally, providing vast amounts of safe, potentially inexhaustible and zero-emission energy. In March 2023, we signed a new cooperation agreement with Commonwealth Fusion Systems (CFS), a spin-out of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), to accelerate the industrialisation of fusion ener- gy. CFS, where Eni is a strategic shareholder, is working to have the first pilot reactor capable of generating energy from fusion operational as early as 2025, with
-
view to the first grid-connected industrial plant planned for early next decade.
In the transformation path that Eni has undertaken, the UN Sus- tainable Development Goals are an important reference for con- ducting activities in the Countries where it operates for integrating principles and values into its gov-
ness, for example, embodies the fundamental pillars of Eni sus- tainability: an energy transition with a strong innovative component combined with a strong focus for the social dimension. With this in mind, Eni is working to ensure that the decarbonization process offers opportunities to convert existing activities and develop new production supply chains with significant opportunities in the Countries where it operates. In 2022, the first cargo of vegetable oil produced in Ken- ya not competing with the food production chain, from waste and raw materials produced on degraded land, was delivered to Eni's biorefining plants, with substantial positive impacts on employment and local development. The model will be replicated in other Countries and is accompanied by
-
capacity-buildinginitiative, car- ried out with IRENA, to train civil servants in the same Countries on the opportunities of developing a biofuel supply chain.
Through alliances for develop- ment, we also carry out local de- velopment projects in the Coun- tries where we operate to help provide access to energy, edu- cation and health and promote economic diversification. Among the initiatives implemented in 2022 to support the Just Tran- sition are those in Côte d'Ivoire, Mozambique and Ghana to facil- itate access to clean cooking. In Côte d'Ivoire, more than 20,000 cookstoves were distributed in just six months, reaching more than 100,000 people. Eni has promoted the right to education in Congo, Ghana, Iraq, Mexico, Mozambique, and Egypt, where Eni opened the Zohr Applied Technology School, intending to significantly increase the number of young people with appropriate technical and professional skills in the energy and technology
signed to strengthen collaboration in areas of common interest, such as economic diversification and renewable energy, in line with SDG 9 (Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure).
To protect and respect human rights, we promote a structured and rigorous approach, constantly monitoring activities and projects to assess their impacts and outcomes in line with the highest standards. Among them, the Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGPs), the 10 Principles of the Global Compact and the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises are vital references to guide our business and corporate practices.
In managing the difficult challenges that Eni faces, we keep our priorities firmly on track with an ongoing commitment to protecting the health and safety of our people, safeguarding the integrity of our assets, and protecting the environment, biodiversity and water resources. We value a culture of diversity and inclusion as a strength for addressing change and are committed to promoting gender equality and women's empowerment in the workplace and communities.
The success of our strategy can only be achieved with the collaboration of our stakeholders, from private, public, international and civil society organisations to research institutes. More than ever, there is a need to pool resources and human capital with a broad view to align on common goals to reduce geographical gaps and promote global human progress.
