Additionally, the report highlights CONSOL’s continued sustainability endeavours, including the company’s voluntary direct operating GHG emission reduction program, as well as its strategic partnerships that seek to advance the technologies needed to support the achievement of ambitious climate goals, such as carbon capture utilisation and storage (CCUS).

The company firmly believes its responsibly produced coal is and will continue to be needed in the mix of energy sources to achieve the transition toward climate change goals: “Our world-class asset base will continue to be relied upon to support infrastructure build-out in the industrial and metallurgical sectors, and to provide the secure, stable, and reliable energy that improves global quality of life and ultimately drives Forward Progress.”
