CARBON MANAGEMENT AND CARBON
NEUTRALITY
As we progress towards our 2050 net-zero
goal, we continue taking significant steps by
decreasing
emissions
and
channeling
investments into the low-carbon sector and
nature-based solutions. These efforts are
crucial in aiding the global shift towards net
zero, as well as advancing our company’s own
net-zero trajectory. We are dedicated to
investing in the energy transition and are
proactively managing and reducing carbon
emissions within our portfolio of investment
companies. Additionally, we have committed to
offsetting all of our Scope 1 and 2 emissions for
the year 2023, underscoring our dedication to
environmental stewardship and sustainable
business practices.
2023 CO2 EMISSIONS
Over the years, we have been tracking and
disclosing our greenhouse gas (GHG)
emissions footprint and making improvements
in data collection and our approach. In 2023,
we took a significant step forward by forming a
partnership with Validere, a leading emissions
management software provider, supported by a
highly skilled team of GHG experts. This
collaboration is focused on digitizing and
verifying our emissions calculations, thereby
refining the efficiency and accuracy of our
GHG reporting processes.
