Power station EU ETS CO emissions totalled 10.8 million<br />
2<br />
tonnes in <strong>2011</strong> compared with 11.8 million tonnes in 2010.<br />
In <strong>2011</strong>, the downward trend in CO emissions per kWh<br />
2<br />
generated continued as a result of lower consumption of<br />
coal and increased wind generation. CO emissions per<br />
2<br />
electricity and gas energy unit generated were 486 g/kWh<br />
in <strong>2011</strong> against 524 g/kWh in 2010.<br />
Green electricity and heat generation accounted for 29%<br />
versus 30% in 2010. The marginal decline was due to higher<br />
generation from new gas-fired power stations, which was<br />
only partly offset by higher generation from wind farms.<br />
Health and safety<br />

Health and safety factors form part of the ambition to<br />
operate the company responsibly and have committed and<br />
highly skilled employees.<br />
There were 74 lost time injuries in <strong>2011</strong>, including 40<br />
among suppliers. Converted to lost time injuries per one<br />
million hours worked (LTIF), the total number of injuries at<br />
<strong>DONG</strong> <strong>Energy</strong> and the Group’s suppliers fell from 4.6 in<br />
2010 to 4.1 in <strong>2011</strong>, the lowest ever in <strong>DONG</strong> <strong>Energy</strong>’s history.<br />
The injury frequency target set for <strong>2011</strong> was 5.2. For<br />
2012, the target has been tightened to 4.1, equivalent to<br />
the level achieved in <strong>2011</strong>.<br />
In <strong>2011</strong>, there were two tragic incidents in which three<br />
persons lost their lives. Onboard a coal tanker, two persons<br />
died when they entered an area below deck where there<br />
was no oxygen. At a construction site, a subcontractor employee<br />
died during a fire in a tower. <strong>DONG</strong> <strong>Energy</strong> takes<br />
these accidents very seriously and has stepped up preventive<br />
action.<br />
In <strong>2011</strong>, the Group continued its efforts to develop a<br />
strong safety culture focusing on risk assessment and proactive<br />
prevention as well as follow-up on all incidents to<br />
continuously improve safety performance at both <strong>DONG</strong><br />
<strong>Energy</strong> and its contractors and partners.<br />
