Neste, the world’s foremost producer of renewable diesel and sustainable aviation fuel, has been recognized for the 18th consecutive year in the Dow Jones Sustainability Indices (DJSI). This achievement highlights Neste’s ongoing dedication to sustainability and reinforces its role in facilitating the transition to a lower-carbon economy and society.
The company was included in both the DJSI World and DJSI Europe indices, placing it among the top performers within its industry. In comparison to its peers, Neste earned particularly high marks in areas such as human rights, biodiversity, climate strategy, and supply chain management. These results demonstrate the company’s strong commitment to driving positive environmental and social impact.
Päivi Makkonen, Neste’s Vice President of Sustainability, expressed pride in the recognition: “Being recognized by the DJSI as one of the leading sustainable companies in the world is an honor for all of us in the company. During 2024, our renewable and circular solutions have contributed globally to running societies more sustainably and helping our customers and partners achieve their sustainability goals. This recognition inspires us to continue our persistent work in making our own operations and the entire industry more sustainable.”
The DJSI is a widely respected global set of indices that assesses thousands of companies based on their environmental, economic, and social performance. Only the top-ranking companies within each industry are eligible for inclusion.
Neste’s placement in the DJSI is a testament to its successful strategies in advancing sustainable practices, not only through its products like renewable diesel and sustainable aviation fuel but also through comprehensive efforts in reducing emissions and enhancing operational efficiency. This achievement is particularly significant given the growing importance of sustainability in global business operations and the ongoing need for industries to adapt to environmental challenges.
The inclusion of Neste in these prestigious indices underscores the company’s leadership in integrating sustainability into its business model. As climate concerns become more urgent, Neste’s focus on renewable solutions places it at the forefront of driving change in sectors crucial to reducing carbon footprints. The company’s sustained presence in the DJSI reflects its long-term vision to contribute to a more sustainable world while supporting the transition to a circular economy.
By maintaining its position among the global sustainability leaders, Neste continues to inspire businesses and individuals alike to consider the profound impact of their environmental and social actions. This milestone reinforces the importance of commitment to sustainability, driving the company and its partners to further innovate and lead in creating a more sustainable future.
