Near-term SBTi Targets (cascaded from ERG S.p.A.):
- Scope 1 and 2 (power generation): Reduce GHG emissions 72% per MWh by 2027 from a 2020 base year.
- Scope 1 and 3 (fuel and energy related activities): Reduce GHG emissions covering all sold electricity 70.4% per MWh by 2027 from a 2020 base year.
- Increase active sourcing of renewable electricity from 94% in 2020 to 100% in 2030.
Long-term SBTi Targets (cascaded from ERG S.p.A.):
- Scope 1 and 2 (power generation): Reduce GHG emissions 94.8% per MWh by 2040 from a 2020 base year.
- Scope 1 and 3 (fuel and energy related activities): Reduce GHG emissions covering all sold electricity 95.3% per MWh by 2040.
- Other Scope 3: Reduce all other Scope 3 GHG emissions 97% per MWhe by 2040.
Additionally, Erg had an earlier near-term SBTi target to reduce Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions 45.4% per MWh by 2025 from a 2020 base year, and to increase annual sourcing of renewable electricity from 94% in 2020 to 96% by 2025.
