About us
In the field of environmental conservation, the EPSO-G group is dedicated to its primary objective of facilitating climate-neutral energy and mitigating the environmental impacts and emissions resulting from the activities of its companies. As outlined in the environmental policy ratified by the EPSO-G board in 2021, the group has pledged to monitor the environmental repercussions of its operations closely. Furthermore, it is committed to implementing state-of-the-art technologies and measures aimed at significantly reducing its environmental footprint. When operating, expanding, or modernising the infrastructure of energy systems, the Group companies have committed to ensure the protection of biodiversity, and to implement environmental management systems in its operations and to ensure that these systems comply with the requirements set. Both Amber Grid and Tetas have achieved certification of their environmental management activities according to the ISO 14001 standard. Similarly, in 2023, Litgrid obtained accreditation for its operations.
All EPSO-G Group companies have a goal of zero tolerance to environmental pollution and zero environmental incidents. EPSO-G companies take the precautionary approach by carrying out environmental impact assessments in accordance with legal requirements before undertaking projects that may have a significant impact on the environment, biodiversity, or society.
The implementation of the environmental policy is the responsibility of EPSO-G's corporate managers and environmental functional managers, who ensure that environmental aspects are identified, environmental objectives are set, plans are drawn up, targets are set to improve the environmental situation and sufficient resources are allocated to their implementation, results are monitored periodically, and processes are audited.
