Investing in Natural Carbon Sinks

Investing in Natural Carbon Sinks

We are investing to preserve and develop ecosystems that store carbon naturally, with the goal of achieving annual sequestration capacity of 5 to 10 million tons of CO2 by 2030.

40,000 HECTARES OF PLANTED FOREST IN THE REPUBLIC OF THE CONGO

TotalEnergies and Forêt Ressources Management have signed a partnership agreement with the Republic of the Congo to plant a 40,000-hectare forest on the Batéké Plateau. The new forest will create a carbon sink that will sequester more than 10 million tons of CO2 over 20 years, to be certified in accordance with the Verified Carbon Standard (VCS) and Climate, Community & Biodiversity (CCB) standards.

ACHIEVING NET ZERO

TotalEnergies does not intend to trade these carbon credits; they will be produced solely for the purpose of achieving carbon neutrality for the Company’s own Scope 1 & 2 emissions. We will publish an annual report with details of carbon credits certified, stored and used as from 2030.
