Bow Energy Limited's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Shell plc

Bow Energy Limited, headquartered in Australia, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. However, the company is part of a corporate family that includes Shell plc, from which it inherits emissions data and climate commitments. This relationship places Bow Energy at a cascade level of 2, meaning it aligns with the broader sustainability initiatives and targets set by Shell. While Bow Energy has not established its own reduction targets or specific climate pledges, it is influenced by Shell's commitments, which include participation in the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and other climate-related frameworks.
