TEQLMGE ESG

CSRD Directive

By 2027, the reporting obligation will also cover publicly traded small and medium-sized enterprises employing more than 10 employees and exceeding the threshold of 3 million Polish zlotys in net revenue, or 1.5 million Polish zlotys in total assets.

Triple Bottom Line Accounting

A framework or theory that recommends that companies commit to focus on social and environmental concerns just as they do on profits, encapsulating the ethos of sustainable investments.

Global CO₂ Emissions

As of recent data, global CO₂ emissions from fossil fuels and industry reached about 36.3 billion tonnes per year. This number provides a baseline for understanding the scale of global efforts needed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Renewable Energy Share

Globally, renewables accounted for about 29% of total electricity production in recent years. The largest source is hydropower, followed by wind, solar, and bioenergy.

ESG Assets Under Management (AUM)

Global ESG assets are on track to exceed $53 trillion by 2025, which would be more than a third of the $140.5 trillion in projected total assets under management. This reflects the growing investor interest in responsible and sustainable investing

Average CO₂ Emissions Per Capita

The global average CO₂ emissions per capita is about 4.8 tonnes. However, this varies significantly by country, with developed nations generally having higher per capita emissions due to more energy-intensive lifestyles

Energy Intensity of Economies

Energy intensity, measured as energy used per unit of GDP, has been decreasing globally, indicating improved energy efficiency. As of recent data, the global average stands at about 5.1 megajoules per dollar of GDP.

Global Electric Vehicle (EV) Numbers

There were over 10 million electric vehicles on the road globally as of recent counts, with projections suggesting numbers could reach 145 million by 2030 under current policy scenarios. EVs are a significant factor in reducing transport sector emissions.

Fossil Fuel Subsidies vs. Renewable Incentives

Globally, fossil fuel consumption subsidies were estimated at around $320 billion, while renewable energy subsidies were about $140 billion. The disparity highlights the ongoing challenge of redirecting financial flows toward sustainable energy

Average Energy Consumption Per Household

The average annual energy consumption per household in the US is about 10,649 kWh. In comparison, the global average is much lower, reflecting differences in lifestyle, climate, and energy efficiency

Global Wind Energy Capacity

Global wind energy capacity has exceeded 743 GW, with annual installations growing each year. Wind energy is a significant contributor to reducing CO₂ emissions in the energy sector

Solar Power Growth Rate

Solar PV (photovoltaic) has one of the highest growth rates among renewable energy technologies, with total global installed capacity surpassing 707 GW. The annual growth rate over recent years has averaged above 25%

Energy Return on Investment (EROI) for Renewables

The Energy Return on Investment (EROI) for wind energy is about 18-20:1 and for solar PV around 8-12:1, compared to traditional coal which can range from 25-80:1. EROI is critical for understanding the efficiency and sustainability of energy sources

Deforestation and CO₂ Emissions

Deforestation and forest degradation contribute about 10% of global CO₂ emissions. Protecting and restoring forests is vital for absorbing CO₂ and maintaining biodiversity

Global Primary Energy Consumption

Global primary energy consumption reached about 173,340 TWh in recent years. Primary energy includes all energy forms extracted or captured directly from natural resources before conversion to electricity or other secondary forms.

World's Largest Energy Consumer

China is the world's largest energy consumer, accounting for approximately 24% of global primary energy consumption, followed closely by the United States

Oil Consumption and Production

Global oil consumption is around 100 million barrels per day, with the top producers being the United States, Saudi Arabia, and Russia, highlighting the continued reliance on fossil fuels

Natural Gas Usage

Natural gas accounts for around 24% of global energy consumption, with increasing usage in electricity generation due to its lower CO₂ emissions compared to coal.

Coal's Share in Global Energy:

Coal still represents about 27% of the global energy mix, primarily used for electricity generation and industrial processes, despite its high greenhouse gas emissions

Nuclear Energy Contribution

Nuclear power contributes about 10% of the world's electricity generation. It's considered a low-carbon source and plays a role in reducing emissions in the energy sector.

Global Electricity Generation

Total global electricity generation is approximately 27,000 TWh annually, with renewables, coal, natural gas, nuclear, and oil being the primary sources
