The report demonstrates Energy Vault’s commitment to providing transparency and progress on material non-financial sustainability & Environmental, Social, and Governance metrics. In its second annual Corporate Sustainability Report, Energy Vault shares early-stage data and 2023 activations of newly established sustainability infrastructure, systems, protocols, standards, and metrics from which the organization measures current and future success.
Energy Vault’s sustainability roadmap is influenced by the analysis and work performed with the standards established by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD). The adoption of TCFD has become a part of Energy Vault’s risk management and strategic planning, while the SBTi helps drive ambitious climate action, enabling Energy Vault to set science-based emissions reduction targets. SBTi has and will continue to inform the Company’s decision making as it relates to a low carbon economy and climate-related transition and physical risks. The information is used for decision making, risk and opportunity analysis, allowing its stakeholders to make informed decisions when investing in or working with Energy Vault.
“At Energy Vault, we are on a mission to advance the global transition to clean energy through a transformation of the world’s approach to energy storage,” said Robert Piconi, Chairman and CEO, Energy Vault. “Since our founding, we have been focused on the development of a full suite of customer-centric energy storage solutions designed to meet a wide range of customer needs. Today, as we continue to expand our global footprint with new strategic partnerships while delivering turnkey energy storage systems and software to our customers, sustainability remains fundamental to our corporate strategy, and deeply ingrained in our day-to-day work. As evidence of this commitment, I’m pleased to share that Energy Vault’s overall ESG score from S&P Global increased from 17 in 2022 to 51 in 2023, placing our company in the 94th percentile of our industry.”
