Greenhouse gas emissions

Indicators on page:

The key source of environmental impacts caused by our operations are gas emissions into the atmosphere. Therefore, we strive to employ the best available techniques and practices to minimise the environmental impacts of our processes involving air emissions.

Direct greenhouse gas emissions from the LOTOS Group’s industrial units (including those not covered by the emissions trading scheme) are determined based on the methodology set out in Commission Implementing Regulation (UE) 2018/2066 (in Polish). The amount of fuel combusted or source stream processed is multiplied by relevant factors (net calorific value, emission factor or oxidation factor), resulting in total greenhouse gas emissions.

Indirect emissions are determined based on the amount of electricity and heat purchased outside the Group, multiplied by relevant emission factors published periodically by the National Centre for Emissions Balancing and Management (KOBiZE).
