Axxela Limited, a gas and energy holding company in sub-Saharan Africa, has published its 2025 Sustainability Report, providing a comprehensive overview of the company’s environmental, social and governance performance across its operations during the year.
The report, titled “Enabling Access, Deepening Impact,” highlights Axxela’s performance on key metrics and underlines its efforts to expand its infrastructure footprint, deepen stakeholder engagement, and strengthen responsible business practices.
In the year under review, Axxela expanded its gas pipeline network by 39 km, improving connectivity in Lagos, Ogun and Rivers states. The company also recorded zero deaths and achieved 9.6 million lost-time injury (LTI)-free man-hours across its operations. In addition, Axxela strengthened its client portfolio by connecting new industrial and commercial clients to its network. Other milestones include achieving Great Place to Work certification and receiving a gold medal in the EcoVadis Sustainability Assessment, placing Axxela among the top 5% of companies assessed globally.
Commenting on the report, Moshood Olajide, Group CEO of Axxela, emphasized that Axxela’s performance in 2025 reflects the company’s commitment to responsible growth and long-term value creation.
“Expanding domestic gas utilization remains central to our strategy. Every new customer connection supports cleaner, more efficient energy use, helping industries improve efficiency and reduce reliance on traditionally dirtier fuels.
“Our growth remains anchored in responsible infrastructure development and long-term value creation. We will continue to support Nigeria’s transition to a more sustainable gas-powered economy,” he said.
The report also outlined Axxela’s approach to environmental management, including environmental monitoring, operational controls and rehabilitation programs designed to minimize environmental disturbance and protect biodiversity.
The company maintained environmental compliance records, conducted annual compliance audits and risk assessments, and conducted quarterly scans of emerging risks across all of its operations and projects.
Axxela’s 2025 Sustainability Report, its ninth consecutive edition, was prepared in accordance with the core requirements of the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) Standards and builds on the discipline and reporting frameworks established in previous years. The report highlights the company’s strong commitment to transparent disclosure, responsible business practices and long-term value creation, while detailing the progress, priorities and actions that shape its approach to sustainable and responsible growth.
