ESG

MDC is the ideal partner to integrate sustainability into your business.

We support our clients in reducing their greenhouse gas emissions.

At MDC, we integrate sustainability into our business strategy by working with low-carbon energy sources like natural gas and biomethane. To execute our operations, we rely on complementary pillars:

1. Integrated portfolio: Combining low-carbon energy sources.
2. Strong organizational culture: We prioritize our people, our greatest asset.
3. We encourage innovation and constant technological evolution.
4. Engagement with local communities: We maintain strong relationships with the communities surrounding our operations.

Our low-carbon projects help clients and partners reduce their greenhouse gas emissions, allowing us to implement sustainability strategies in their businesses.

We are aligned with the best sustainability practices and are deeply connected to the ESG agenda (Environmental, Social, and Governance).

Today, we are shaping the future, caring for communities, and aligning with global development goals.

At MDC, ESG strategy is put into practice. We directly contribute to six SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) of the UN’s 2030 Agenda. Here’s an overview of the SDGs we support:

People are our greatest asset!

MDC is committed to the development and appreciation of its team. In addition, the company carries out strong social work in the communities where it operates, always prioritizing education and income generation as key causes.

Impacting an average of 3,500 people per year, the company works with long-term social projects, assistance actions in communities, and sponsorship of social initiatives through incentive laws.

To expand our social impact actions, we need to engage employees and other stakeholders, mobilizing efforts to create opportunities, income, and education for the communities.
