We generate a high percentage of the total energy needed to operate, with high energy efficiency standards. Due to the measures implemented in production plants in Chile, we have received, from the Ministry of Energy, the Energy Efficiency Seal, in the Gold and Silver categories, in addition to the Clean Energy and Outstanding Energy Efficiency Measure awards. The latter rewards Chilean organizations certified with the ISO 50.001 standard with at least two energy efficiency measures implemented. Santa Fe, Pacífico, Laja, and Sack Kraft stood out for the management of their systems. Moreover, In the fourth edition of the CONECTA Corporate Recognitions 2023 organized by the Global Compact Network in Chile, CMPC was awarded for its contribution to meeting Sustainable Development Goals, where the “Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy Attributes in Our Operations in Chile” project won first place in the SDG Interconnection category.

CMPC’s energy management systems are audited through the ISO 50001 standard, which covered 27 plants, equivalent to 91% of the Company’s energy consumption in 2025. The industrial plants of CMPC that have certified Energy Management Systems (SGEn) based on the ISO 50001:2018 standard, possess a proactive and systematic energy management culture, ensuring that energy performance improvement is a continuous process rooted in operations. This is evidenced in the processes of both internal and external audits, which are conducted annually to meet regulatory requirements in energy review, where opportunities for improvement (operational and investment) are identified and prioritized, and the implementation of measures is planned to support the achievement of the defined energy objectives and goals.

This certification requires the establishment of annual energy efficiency targets in each plant, which contributes to CMPC’s goals to reduce scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2030, scope 3 by 2035 and to achieve Net Zero emissions by 2040. Additionally, the Company has made significant advances in renewable energy generation, solar energy in particular. Photovoltaic power generation networks have been installed in several locations of its operations with the aim of confronting the global climate crisis and improving access to cleaner energy sources.  In 2025, 82% of the energy consumed by the company came from renewable sources

Thanks to different operational efficiency actions, the organization has managed to reduce its energy consumption by 252.5 GWh in 2025.

At CMPC we are exploring this space along different routes on several possible fronts, both with startups and large companies, to understand the necessary efforts, opportunity costs, diversity of applications and associated markets.
