It ensures transparency, accountability and responsible decision-making in all aspects of our business operations. Serving as a bedrock are QatarEnergy’s Code of Conduct and Foundational Policies , with the Sustainability Policy holding a key position. It lays out clear guidelines and objectives to promote sustainable business practices.
It relies on several main pillars: to develop a low carbon energy department, to reduce emissions to compensate for residual emissions, and to preserve the company's leading position in the LNG sector. Qatar Energy set within its strategy several targets, such as:
QatarEnergy is committed to playing its part. Our sustainability strategy and actions are guided and informed by the State of Qatar’s commitment to the Paris Agreement, as reflected in the Qatar National Vision (QNV) 2030 and the National Climate Change Action Plan (NCCAP).
The level of infrastructure change necessary in Qatar's energy sector is a significant challenge. Hence, it requires energy planning with an adequate spatial and temporal resolution that captures and projects infrastructure requirements with a particular emphasis on the coupling of renewable and hydrogen in power systems.
Far from being holistic, the literature's focus has been confined to either specific sub-sectors or technology within Qatar's broader energy system. Examples include the electrification of transport, the potential of renewables, and hydrogen production and export.
The reliance on natural gas for electricity generation to meet the energy demands of the building sector also underscores the importance of diversifying Qatar's energy mix by increasing the share of renewable energy sources such as solar and wind power.
Sustainability Strategy
The first pillar, ''Climate change and environmental action'', focuses on supplying lower-carbon LNG supporting global sustainability, reducing our carbon footprint and developing new lower-carbon energy solutions, curbing operational emissions, capturing and offsetting hard-to-abate emissions, minimizing and recycling waste through circular ...
