Suncor today released its annual Report on Sustainability which
details the company’s environmental, social and economic
performance. Suncor’s perspective on the challenges and
opportunities of climate change, and the transition to a low-carbon
economy are contained in its third Climate Risk and Resilience
Report available within the Report on Sustainability and as a
stand-alone downloadable PDF. The annual Report on Sustainability
is available both online and as a downloadable PDF.
Suncor’s sustainability goals reflect focused
efforts on strengthening relationships with Indigenous Peoples and
communities in Canada, and harnessing technology and innovation to
reduce the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions intensity of its
operations. Driving sustainability performance improvement is
critical to the company’s business strategy, and it’s woven into
the very fabric of the organization. As always, actions speak
louder than words. The Report on Sustainability provides several
examples of these actions.
“We are living in an era of transformation – as
a company, as an industry and as a global community. We have
choices to make about our shared energy future and the role we will
all play in shaping it,” said Mark Little, president and chief
executive officer. “Globally, we are beginning to transform our
energy system toward a low-carbon economy. Suncor is engaged in
this transition and we believe innovation will be critical to our
success.”
Suncor’s sustainability performance
included:
- Technology and innovation: In 2018, Suncor
invested approximately $635 million in technology development and
deployment including digital technologies.
- Partnering with Indigenous businesses: $703
million spent with 83 Indigenous businesses across Canada in
2018.
- GHG performance and mitigating emissions: With
Fort Hills, our newest mining facility, we have deployed extraction
technology that removes carbon from the oil before it is sent to
market.
- Water performance and stewardship:
Approximately 88% of the water used by our mining and extraction
operations in 2018 was recycled tailings water.
The report also provides senior leaders’
perspectives in these areas:
- A discussion about energy challenges and opportunities with
Suncor president and chief executive officer, Mark Little.
- A Q&A with Eric Axford, executive vice president and chief
sustainability officer, on the progress made last year, the
priorities ahead, and the company’s sustainability journey.

Sustainability (DJSI) indices for 19 consecutive years, as well as
