In 2024, Beach Energy, headquartered in Australia, reported total carbon emissions of approximately 437,409,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 18,648,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 5,668,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3. This data reflects a comprehensive disclosure of emissions across all relevant scopes, indicating a commitment to transparency in their environmental impact. In 2023, the company recorded Scope 1 emissions of about 436,110,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions of approximately 18,199,000 kg CO2e. The previous year, 2022, saw Scope 1 emissions at around 459,253,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at about 19,435,000 kg CO2e. This trend suggests a slight reduction in emissions over the years, although specific reduction targets or initiatives have not been disclosed. Beach Energy has not reported any specific science-based targets (SBTi) or formal climate pledges, indicating a potential area for future commitment. The absence of significant reduction initiatives or targets may reflect the broader industry context, where many companies are still developing comprehensive climate strategies. Overall, while Beach Energy has made strides in emissions reporting, the lack of defined reduction targets highlights an opportunity for the company to enhance its climate commitments and align with industry best practices.
