Empower Limited's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Contact Energy Limited

Empower Limited, headquartered in New Zealand, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data for the most recent year. The company is a current subsidiary of Contact Energy Limited, which influences its climate commitments and emissions reporting. As part of its corporate family relationship, Empower Limited's climate initiatives and targets are aligned with those of Contact Energy Limited. However, no specific reduction targets or achievements have been documented for Empower Limited itself. The absence of emissions data suggests that the company may still be in the process of establishing its own reporting framework or climate strategy. Empower Limited's climate commitments are likely informed by the broader initiatives of Contact Energy Limited, which may include participation in industry-standard frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). However, specific details regarding these initiatives or any climate pledges have not been disclosed for Empower Limited. In summary, while Empower Limited is positioned within a corporate structure that prioritises climate action, it currently lacks specific emissions data and defined reduction targets. The company's future climate commitments may evolve as it develops its own sustainability strategy in alignment with its parent organisation.
