In 2022, Bank Pekao Group’s greenhouse gas emissions were calculated for the second year in a row. Calculations were performed in accordance with the GHG Protocol methodology for Scope 1, i.e., direct emissions generated at facilities owned or supervised by the Group, and Scope 2, i.e., indirect emissions from purchased electricity, steam, heat and cooling from third-party suppliers. The calculation of emissions in the value chain (GHG Protocol Scope 3) is planned to be carried out in 2023 in terms of the financing portfolio (subcategory 15). In the coming years, the Bank intends to carry out emission reduction activities – the goal by 2024 is to reduce its own emissions compared to 2020, including by rationalizing business travel, environmental improvements at the Bank’s locations (reducing face-to-face visits to customers in favor of remote contact, gradually replacing the vehicle fleet with models that emit less exhaust fumes into the atmosphere; changing the heating method of its facilities, optimizing processes to use less paper). The Bank will monitor the consumption of raw materials and materials and conduct activities to promote less waste. It also plans to engage in offset activities in the future.

New location of the Bank’s headquarters
The Bank’s headquarters are scheduled to move to a new location in Warsaw in 2023 – a state-of-the-art building designed to consume as little energy and raw materials as possible (including the ability to recycle rainwater). The building is covered with solar control glass, and the floor-to-ceiling tall windows are equipped with a special triple silver coating to guarantee employees a clear view and optimal thermal comfort. Lower energy consumption will be ensured by the building’s facade, which guarantees above-standard access of daylight to the interiors, while providing a barrier to the sun’s overly intense rays. This will reduce the building’s energy consumption required for heating in winter and air conditioning in summer, and for artificial lighting. The building has the relevant environmental and energy efficiency certificates: BREEAM on Excellent level, as well as WELL certificate.
