Milan – Eni has released its voluntary sustainability report titled “Eni for 2025 – A Just Transition,” outlining the Company’s performance over the year and the key actions taken towards delivering a fair and inclusive energy transition for people and host communities.
Now in its 20th edition, the report is designed to strengthen stakeholders’ understanding of Eni’s sustainability strategy, offering a transparent overview of its integrated approach to achieving environmental and social objectives.
Commenting on the report, Eni Chief Executive Officer, Claudio Descalzi, said the company is addressing global energy challenges through a balanced industrial model that combines traditional operations with new energy solutions while leveraging innovation, efficiency and value chain integration.
“Our business model places people at its core, safeguards the health and safety of everyone working with and for Eni, contributes to the well-being of the communities where we operate and increases environmental protection. This enables us to navigate market disruptions with resilience and to consistently advance along our transformation path,” Descalzi stated.
The report reviews Eni’s performance across five key sustainability drivers: carbon neutrality by 2050, environmental protection, the value of people, development alliances, and sustainability across the value chain. It also features case studies and interviews with external organisations and institutions that collaborate with Eni, providing insight into the global context shaping the company’s sustainability strategy.
According to Eni, 2025 was marked by significant progress despite a volatile global environment and a challenging international landscape.
Notably, Upstream net greenhouse gas emissions declined by 31 per cent compared to 2024 and by 68 per cent relative to the 2018 baseline, aligning with the company’s goal of achieving net-zero Scope 1 and 2 emissions in its Upstream operations by 2030 and across Eni by 2035. The progress was supported by continuous methane monitoring and the achievement of zero routine flaring in operated activities.
In the renewable energy segment, Plenitude expanded its installed renewable capacity to 5.8 gigawatts (GW), representing a 41 per cent increase year-on-year, as it moves towards its 15 GW target by 2030. The company also commenced operations of its largest battery storage facility in Texas, with a capacity of 200 megawatts (MW).
Meanwhile, Enilive continued growing its biorefining footprint, completing three new biorefineries and advancing two additional projects in Italy and abroad. The company is targeting 5 million tonnes of processing capacity by 2030, up from the current 1.65 million tonnes, to support the production of Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil (HVO) biofuels and Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF).
Eni also established a Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) satellite company in a joint venture with private equity firm Global Infrastructure Partners (GIP). The company said the new entity will help unlock value from its CCS project portfolio and further demonstrate the strength of its satellite model in attracting dedicated investment and accelerating business growth.
On innovation, Eni disclosed that it invested more than €460 million in 2025 into research and development, open innovation initiatives, advanced digital solutions and breakthrough technologies. Areas of focus included magnetic confinement fusion, high-performance computing, biorefining technologies, chemical recycling of plastics, and CO₂ capture and storage solutions.
The report further emphasised Eni’s focus on people, ethics and inclusion. The company said it operates in line with global frameworks and international standards on safety and human rights, while also promoting workplace inclusion. It noted that Eni ranked first in the Corporate Human Rights Benchmark and received the UNI PdR 125:2022 gender equality certification.
During the year, Eni invested €81 million in local development projects aimed at improving access to energy, water and healthcare, as well as supporting education, economic diversification and community health. The company said its development initiatives reached around three million people across the countries where it operates through partnerships with institutions, NGOs, international organisations and local communities.
Eni stated that the 2025 sustainability report reflects its commitment to delivering long-term shared value while advancing its energy transition agenda.
