Intelsat Investments S.A.'s reported carbon emissions

Inherited from SES S.A.

Intelsat Investments S.A., headquartered in Luxembourg (LU), currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. The company is a current subsidiary of SES S.A., which is responsible for cascading emissions data and climate commitments through a corporate family relationship. While no direct emissions data is available, Intelsat Investments S.A. is aligned with the climate initiatives of its parent company, SES S.A.

As a subsidiary, Intelsat's climate strategy may reflect the broader goals set by SES S.A., which is focused on reducing its carbon footprint and enhancing sustainability practices across its operations.
