Despite the substantial emissions figures, there are currently no publicly disclosed reduction targets or specific climate pledges from Orlen. This lack of formal commitments may reflect broader industry challenges in setting and achieving ambitious climate goals. As the company continues to operate within the energy sector, it faces increasing pressure to enhance its sustainability practices and reduce its overall carbon emissions.
