In 2025, Beach Energy reported total Scope 1 emissions of approximately 1,106,582,000 kg CO2e. For the previous year, 2024, the company disclosed emissions of about 664,180,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 1,118,781,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 3,784,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3. In 2023, Beach Energy's emissions in Australia were approximately 407,908,000 kg CO2e, with 391,386,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 16,522,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2. The company has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments, nor has it engaged with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) for formal reduction targets. This lack of defined targets may reflect broader industry trends where many companies are still developing comprehensive climate strategies. Overall, Beach Energy's emissions data highlights a significant reliance on fossil fuel operations, particularly in Scope 1 emissions, which are directly linked to their production activities. The absence of substantial reduction commitments suggests a need for enhanced climate action strategies in line with global sustainability goals.
