PPA S.A. stakeholders.
In 2025, PPA SA took a significant step towards strengthening corporate governance by integrating strategic sustainability into the core of its corporate strategy. This initiative marks the transition from a compliance approach to a holistic approach, where ESG is now a key factor in decision-making and long-term value creation.
In this context, the principles of sustainable development are interconnected with strategic planning, risk management and investment priorities, enhancing the transparency, accountability and resilience of the organization. At the same time, this integration allows for alignment with international standards and best practices, while strengthening the trust of stakeholders.
In this way, ESG ceases to function as a parallel axis and becomes a catalyst for strategic transformation, enhancing the sustainable development and competitiveness of the company.
