Climate change advocacy
We clearly and transparently support and share our position on the principles we consider essential in climate protection. We promote dialogue with governments, legislators and other companies to shape or support global policies and regulations to combat climate change. We engage with governments and legislators directly, and through groups such as trade associations or multi-sectoral coalitions.

Our main advocacy initiatives
Climate disclosure standards
August 2022 – EFRAG Draft of European Sustainability Reporting Standards E1 - Climate Change
Eni supports the proposal for a European climate reporting standard and believes that, in general, the requirements proposed by EFRAG are useful to ensure comprehensive reporting on companies' decarbonization strategy. Eni hopes that the most important international standard-setters will soon issue clear guidance on the metrics required by the standard whose calculation methodologies are still debated.
July 2022 - International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) Exposure Draft S2 on Climate-related Disclosures
Eni supports the ISSB's draft climate disclosure standard in that it bases its requirements on the 4 key areas for users and preparers already outlined by the TCFD (Governance, Risk Management, Strategy, and Targets & Metrics), and complements these minimum cross-sectoral requirements with a sectoral disclosure to capture the specifics of individual sectors. We hope that sectoral requirements can be further developed, including through comparison with robust, recognised and widely adopted standards (e.g., for the O&G sector, the IPIECA/API/IOGP standard).
June 2022 – US SEC Proposed rule for the Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors
In its response letter to the SEC, Eni supported the Commission's decision to develop a mandatory climate disclosure standard for companies, including a GHG Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions reporting requirement. In developing this standard, Eni suggested that the Commission build on existing guidelines on the subject, such as the TCFD Recommendations, and work towards convergence between this standard and those being developed by other major international regulators (e.g. EFRAG, ISSB).
Carbon Removal
May 2022 - Certification of carbon removals – EU rules
Eni welcomes and supports the European Commission's initiative on the certification of carbon removal solutions. Eni believes that harmonising the rules on the certification of all types of carbon removal activities at European level will increase the confidence of private actors in the development of such solutions, as the environmental and social benefits of their implementation are clear. This will also facilitate decision-making and encourage investment in this market.
Reducing methane emissions
April 2022 - New rules to prevent methane leakage in the energy sector
Eni supports the proposal for an EU-wide law to reduce methane emissions, with the goal of achieving climate neutrality by 2050. In this regard, Eni shares the European Commission's goal of improving the accuracy of source information and reducing methane emissions. Eni also suggests that the proposed regulation should be improved, taking into account that the requirements should balance the rate of issuance and the associated probability of occurrence with the costs for operators to comply with the obligations.
January 2022 - Methane Guiding Principles Signatory Reporting
Through participation in the Methane Guiding Principles initiative, Eni is committed to supporting methane policies and regulations that incentivise early action, drive improved performance, facilitate proper implementation and support flexibility and innovation. In a subset of the Methane Guiding Principles initiative, detailed recommendations have been developed to support appropriate European Union (EU) legislation that achieves ambitious methane emission reduction results across the entire supply chain of natural gas consumed in the EU.
