In 2024, Igas Energy reported total carbon emissions of approximately 24.36 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 0.27 kg CO2e for Scope 2. This marks a slight increase in Scope 1 emissions from 23.33 kg CO2e in 2023, while Scope 2 emissions rose from 0.15 kg CO2e in the same year. The emissions data for 2022 indicates Scope 1 emissions of 23.5 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions of 0.16 kg CO2e. Igas Energy has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data, which typically includes indirect emissions from the value chain. The company has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The emissions data is sourced from Star Energy Group Plc, which is the parent company of Igas Energy. This relationship highlights the importance of corporate family dynamics in understanding emissions reporting and climate commitments. Overall, while Igas Energy has made some progress in tracking its emissions, the lack of significant reduction targets or commitments suggests an opportunity for further climate action and transparency in its sustainability efforts.
