For 18 years, Prologis has consistently monitored, analyzed, and summarized its ESG activities in periodically released reports. The projects completed and results achieved, as presented in the 2023/2024 ESG report, clearly demonstrate that Prologis' efforts yield tangible benefits for clients, enhance property value, and most importantly, bring the company closer to achieving its ambitious climate goals. The report includes current data on sustainable logistics, employees (#prologispeople), and actions taken for local communities and the environment.
Catalysts for Sustainable Development
Technology and innovation are at the forefront of Prologis' sustainable development strategy. Here are some examples of completed initiatives:
- Prologis is nearing its goal of achieving 1 gigawatt (GW) of power from photovoltaic installations and energy storage by 2025 - having already surpassed 500 MW in 2023.
- 74% of the company's buildings are illuminated with highly efficient, energy-saving LED lighting.
- Approximately 23% of Prologis' portfolio has received sustainable building certification, covering an area of over 25 square kilometers.
- Prologis boasts the world's first logistics facility certified for zero carbon emissions by the International Living Future Institute (ILFI) - the DC4 warehouse in Prologis Park Eindhoven, Netherlands.
Partnerships for a Zero-Emission Future
For five years, Prologis has been a member of the Dow Jones Sustainability World Index, ranking among the top 10% of companies worldwide in ESG performance. This year, Prologis' net-zero emission goal was approved by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), the most credible global standard-setting body for emissions. Based on stringent evaluation criteria, SBTi verified Prologis' greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction targets, confirming they are credible and achievable.
Building Strong Communities
Prologis' success is driven by its employees. According to an engagement survey conducted in 2023, 88% of Prologis employees feel highly engaged with the company's activities. Employees actively participate in volunteer work for local communities, dedicating over 16,400 hours to social organizations in 2023, including more than 10,800 hours during the 11th edition of IMPACT Day, the annual global volunteer day. This is a record achievement in the event's history.
"We are pioneers in ESG, setting standards for our industry and beyond. The latest ESG report further confirms that we are on the right track to achieving emission neutrality. Transparent insight into our actions, continuous implementation of sustainable technologies, new partnerships, and environmental initiatives provide our clients with confidence that Prologis is the right partner to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and combat climate change." – emphasizes Paweł Sapek, Senior Vice President and head of Prologis in Central Europe.
