Environmental GRI Performance Indicators
EN1 – Materials used by weight or volume, and
EN2 – Percentage of materials used that are recycled input materials.
Because it is used to make our pipelines, steel, by weight and volume, is by far the most significant material that Enbridge uses. Over 99 per cent of the pipe that our primary supplier, Evraz Inc. NA (formerly Ipsco), manufactures for us is made from recycled steel. Since 2006, Enbridge has committed to purchasing approximately 4,500 kilometres of pipe from Evraz for Enbridge projects in Canada and the U.S. This amount equates to an estimated 786,079 tonnes of recycled steel.
