The tables to the right and on the following pages list all of the ESRS disclosure requirements in ESRS 2 and the seven topical ESRS standards which are material to Ørsted, and which have guided the preparation of our sustainability statements. They can be used to navigate to information relating to a specific ESRS disclosure requirement (e.g. BP-1) or to our ‘entity specific data points’.
