EDF Energy Limited's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Electricité de France S.A.

EDF Energy Limited, headquartered in Great Britain, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year. The company is a current subsidiary of Electricité de France S.A., which influences its climate commitments and emissions reporting. As part of its climate strategy, EDF Energy Limited inherits significant reduction initiatives from its parent company, Electricité de France S.A. This includes participation in various climate initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), CDP, and Climate Action 100+. However, specific reduction targets or achievements for EDF Energy Limited are not detailed in the available data.

The company is expected to follow the industry standards for climate action, focusing on reducing Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions as part of its long-term strategy.
