Sustainability

Snam's approach to sustainability is based on Shared Value,[7][8] a concept elaborated by Michael E. Porter in collaboration with Mark R. Kramer that explores the link between a company and its environment and their mutual interdependence.[9] In order to create Shared Value, Snam promotes sustainable development along its entire transport, dispatchment, regasification, storage and distribution process.[7]

In 2009 [10] the company joined the United Nations Global Compact [11] and since 2006 has published a sustainability report in accordance with the Global Reporting Initiative's guidelines.[12][13] Moreover, Snam operates within the reference framework of the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the Fundamental Conventions of the ILO and the OECD Guidelines on Multinational Enterprises.[14]

Its commitment towards the environment focuses on the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and safeguarding biodiversity.[15] Among its social initiatives, Snam partners with Legambiente [16] and Federparchi [17] and, in 2012, joined the Sodalitas Foundation, which seeks to build bridges between the entrepreneurial world in Italy and the non-profit sector.[18]
