The company has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments, which may limit its ability to demonstrate a clear trajectory towards lower emissions. Overall, while Alliander has made strides in tracking its emissions across all three scopes, the absence of defined reduction targets suggests a need for more robust climate action strategies to align with industry standards and expectations.
