Metrics and Targets

In support of the global transition to a low carbon economy, we have made decarbonisation a major priority for the Group since 2020.

In 2020, we set a target of reducing our like-for-like carbon emissions intensity for Scope 1 and Scope 2 by 50% by 2025, which was achieved two years ahead of schedule in 2022. In 2022, we set a new target to reduce our Scope 1 & 2 emissions in an absolute term by 65% by 2025 and to net zero by 2030. 

Carbon Reduction

We aim to achieve net zero emissions for Scope 1 and 2 by 2030 through three ways:

Below is the progress we have made in CY2022 for achieving our net zero targets:
