Despite these reductions, Gasunie has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The company continues to disclose its emissions across all three scopes, demonstrating transparency in its environmental impact. Gasunie’s emissions data highlights the ongoing challenges and opportunities in its climate commitments, particularly as it navigates the transition towards a more sustainable energy future.
