This data highlights the company's operational impact on climate change, although no emissions data is available for 2021 or 2023. Despite the absence of specific reduction targets or commitments, Central Petroleum Limited has not disclosed any climate pledges or initiatives aimed at reducing their carbon footprint. The company has not cascaded any emissions data from a parent organisation, indicating that their reported figures are solely from their own operations. The emissions intensity for electricity in 2022 was reported at approximately 0.00459 GJ, reflecting the company's energy consumption practices. As of now, Central Petroleum Limited has not established any formal targets under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other recognised climate frameworks, which may limit their accountability in addressing climate change. Overall, while Central Petroleum Limited has disclosed some emissions data, the lack of reduction initiatives or commitments raises questions about their long-term climate strategy and sustainability efforts.
