MET Group reports 2025 climate progress, boosts renewable and storage investment

MET Group has published its Climate Impact Report for 2025, outlining how its integrated portfolio of natural gas, LNG, renewables and battery storage supports Europe’s decarbonisation, security of supply and affordability goals. The report shows that 39% of the company’s 2025 capital expenditure was directed toward renewable energy and battery‑energy‑storage system (BESS) projects, delivering 625 GWh of solar generation from new parks in Germany and Italy, including its first agri‑photovoltaic project.

MET inaugurated one of Hungary’s largest BESS facilities at the Dunamenti Power Station to enhance grid flexibility. Across its retail power markets the average grid‑emission factor fell from 279 to 255 gCO₂e/kWh, driven by growth in cleaner markets such as Spain. For the first time, the greenhouse‑gas inventory received limited assurance from PricewaterhouseCoopers. The company’s climate strategy aligns with the EU Fit for 55 framework and integrates physical and transition‑risk management into long‑term planning.

CEO Huibert Vigeveno said the group aims to be a European energy champion that delivers cleaner energy while remaining commercially sustainable. In 2025 MET Group generated EUR 28.5 billion in revenue, traded 241 bcm of natural gas and 160 TWh of electricity, and operates in 24 countries across 33 national markets and 51 trading hubs.
