It describes the way MET Group\u2019s integrated gas, LNG, power, renewables, and battery storage portfolio supports Europe\u2019s efforts to address the energy trilemma.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Climate Impact Report reflects a year of continued progress in MET Group\u2019s climate journey, including growth in green electricity generation, an increased share of energy transition investments in the company\u2019s capital allocation, and their first GHG inventory subject to third-party limited assurance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>In 2025, the Group increased the proportion of its CAPEX directed toward renewable energy and BESS projects to 39%. Renewable generation reached 625 GWh, supported by new solar parks in Germany and Italy, including the Group\u2019s first Agri-PV project. MET also inaugurated one of Hungary\u2019s largest BESS facilities at Dunamenti Power Station, supporting grid flexibility and renewable integration.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>MET Group\u2019s average grid emission factor across its retail power markets improved from 279 to 255 gCO\u2082e\/kWh, which was primarily driven by significant portfolio growth in cleaner markets such as Spain.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>For the first time, MET Group\u2019s greenhouse gas inventory has been subject to limited assurance by PricewaterhouseCoopers AG, Zurich.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>MET Group&#8217;s climate approach strives to achieve alignment with the EU Fit for 55 framework and integrates climate-related risk management into long-term strategic planning and investment decisions. The report outlines MET\u2019s approach to managing both physical and transition risks, while reinforcing the role of diversified assets, flexible infrastructure, and integrated trading operations in supporting resilience across evolving energy markets.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In his first Climate Impact Report statement as Group CEO, Huibert Vigeveno emphasised: \u201cOur ambition to be a European energy champion, able to provide our customers with cleaner energy, positions us to support Europe in addressing the energy transition trilemma of decarbonisation, security of supply, and affordability \u2013 advancing the transition in a way that is commercially sustainable, operationally reliable, and affordable for the customers and stakeholders we serve.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Huibert Vigeveno added: \u201cEurope should move beyond framing the energy transition primarily as a climate obligation and instead position it as an industrial and technological opportunity. Sustained leadership in climate action will ultimately depend on Europe\u2019s ability to remain an attractive hub for investment, foster innovation, and enable the large-scale industrial deployment of new solutions.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MET Group has published its Climate Impact Report 2025, highlighting how the company continues to balance decarbonisation, security of supply, and affordability through an integrated portfolio of gas, LNG, renewables, and energy storage solutions.
