How Repsol reduced the environmental impact of its waste?
Since 2023, Repsol's total waste generation has increased by 6.49%, which may reflect expanding operations, weaker material efficiency, or insufficient waste reduction efforts.
Since 2023, Repsol's hazardous waste generation has increased by 33.47%, indicating a potential rise in the use of harmful materials, process inefficiencies, or limited hazardous waste reduction strategies..
Overall, Repsol's waste and hazardousness trends are mixed or inconclusive. A more detailed review of its materials, industry standards, and operational changes would help clarify the net environmental impact of its waste strategy.
How does Repsol treat its hazardous waste?
In 2023, Repsol reported that 43,058 metric tonnes of its total waste output were classified as hazardous. This represents 26.45% of its overall waste generation.
The company treated this hazardous waste using a combination of methods. Approximately 28.97% was managed through recovery methods, indicating a moderate integration of circular practices into its hazardous waste management. However, a significant share was still directed toward disposal, highlighting room for improvement in reducing the long-term impact of hazardous materials.
