Jio's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Reliance Industries Limited

As of the latest available data, Reliance Jio Infocomm Limited has not disclosed specific carbon emissions figures. However, the company has set ambitious climate commitments to significantly reduce its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Reliance Jio aims to achieve a 76% reduction in absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by FY2028, using FY2020 as the baseline. Additionally, the company plans to increase its annual sourcing of renewable electricity from approximately 1.19% in FY2020 to 100% by FY2029, maintaining this commitment through FY2030. In terms of Scope 3 emissions, which encompass a wide range of indirect emissions from purchased goods and services, capital goods, and other activities, Reliance Jio has committed to a 66.5% reduction by FY2028, also from a FY2020 baseline. These targets are aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and are designed to support the global goal of limiting temperature rise to 1.5°C. The emissions reduction targets and commitments are cascaded from the parent company, Reliance Industries Limited, reflecting a corporate family approach to sustainability. Reliance Jio's initiatives are part of a broader strategy to enhance environmental performance within the telecommunications sector in India.
