What this page shows — and what it does not
- The documented project contributions are voluntary payments supporting selected climate protection measures outside the company's own value chain.
- The CO₂e-based reference quantities are not set against a Product Carbon Footprint, a Corporate Carbon Footprint or any other emissions.
- The contributions support no statement that a product, a brand or the company is climate neutral, CO₂-neutral, climate-friendly or reduced in emissions.

Bujagali Hydropower
The Bujagali power station is a hydroelectric power station on the Victoria Nile which produces energy at the Bujagali waterfall in Uganda. Construction was completed in 2012. The capacity of the power station is 250 megawatts (340,000 hp). The station is one of the most powerful hydroelectric power stations in Uganda. Hydropower is a form of renewable energy since no CO2 emissions are emitted as a result of direct operation (compared to thermal power stations which use fossil fuels).

Basics & classification
How to read this project contribution correctly
Types of project support
Certificate-based project support
Support of a climate protection project with project units. The project standard and registry ID are documented.
Direct project support
Support of a specific ecological, social or combined measure. No particular CO₂e effect is stated.
Further information
Detailed information is available in the natureOffice documentation framework.
Legal classification
What EmpCo permits
Investments in environmental initiatives may be communicated factually. A project contribution does not have to be certificate-based.
The important limit
No neutral, reduced or positive climate effect of a product may be derived from the project support.
Application
The new rules apply from 27 September 2026.
Notes on communication
Information instead of promised effects
Communicate only the documented facts: project, project type, period and available records.
Keep them apart
A CO₂ balance, a company's own reductions and voluntary project contributions should be presented separately.
Better avoided
Terms such as “climate neutral”, “CO₂-neutral” or “balanced” in connection with project support.
