Displace Coal, Grow More Trees, Fight Climate Change | Enviva Sustainability Report 2020

Enviva is a leading global renewable energy company specializing in sustainable wood bioenergy. We are the world’s largest producer of sustainable wood pellets, which provide a low-carbon alternative to coal and other fossil fuels and are used to generate electricity and heat. We export our pellets to the United Kingdom, Europe, and Japan to replace coal as an energy source, enabling our customers to reduce their lifecycle carbon footprint by more than 85%. Our product helps countries and consumers around the world as they transition to a renewable, dispatchable, low-carbon fuel in an effort to mitigate climate change, one of the most challenging issues of our time. 

Our first-ever sustainability report, published in October 2020, outlines the steps we have taken, as well as lessons we have learned, to ensure that good biomass protects forest health and enables a smooth energy transition that will help put our planet on the path to a net-zero carbon future by 2050. As we grow and evolve, we continue to work closely with our local communities and scientific experts, private forest landowners, conservation organizations, and a broad range of stakeholders to ensure our operations and wood sourcing do not negatively impact the local environment and surrounding communities. 

We invite you to learn about our sustainability journey and look forward to engaging and partnering with you on our sustainability efforts. Read full report here.
