JSW Steel Limited, headquartered in India and operating in the basic iron and steel industry, has made significant commitments to reduce its carbon emissions.

In 2023, JSW Steel reported Scope 1 emissions of approximately 49.36 billion kg CO2e and Scope 3 emissions of about 1.28 billion kg CO2e. There were no Scope 2 emissions reported for this year. In 2022, the company's Scope 1 emissions were approximately 44.21 billion kg CO2e and Scope 3 emissions were about 716.49 million kg CO2e, with no reported Scope 2 emissions.

JSW Steel is committed to reducing specific GHG emissions from its three Integrated Steel Plants (ISPs) to less than 2.0 tonnes CO2 per tonne of crude steel by 2030, and aims to achieve carbon neutrality at JSW Steel Coated Products within the same timeframe. The company also targets a 42% reduction in CO2 emission intensity by 2030 from a 2005 baseline, aligning with India's Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC) commitment. This reduction will be achieved through energy transition towards renewable energy, efficiency improvements, process optimisation, increased use of scrap, and adoption of Best Available Technologies (BAT).
