Our Engagement – Climate and Energy
Our goal is climate neutrality. To achieve this by 2045 (Scopes 1–3), we have developed an “Energy Concept for the Future”. This concept focuses on measures to generate our own power, to procure renewables, to constantly reduce our energy consumption, and to invest in modern systems and machines. A list of measures that is constantly being updated sets out which measures are to be taken at what time and by which operating division or corporate division. In addition, initiatives such as “Don’t Throw Me Away!” and “Cuki Save the Food” are helping to combat food waste and thus also contributing to a reduction in energy consumption and CO2 emissions in the production of food.
