Penfolds Wines Pty Ltd's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Treasury Wine Estates Limited

Penfolds Wines Pty Ltd, headquartered in Australia, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year. The company is a current subsidiary of Treasury Wine Estates Limited, which may influence its climate commitments and emissions reporting. As part of its climate strategy, Penfolds Wines inherits initiatives and performance metrics from Treasury Wine Estates Limited. However, there are no documented reduction targets or specific climate pledges available for Penfolds at this time. The absence of emissions data and reduction initiatives suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate commitments. In the broader context of the wine industry, companies are increasingly focusing on sustainability and carbon reduction, often setting science-based targets to align with global climate goals. Penfolds Wines, through its association with Treasury Wine Estates, may benefit from industry best practices and collaborative efforts aimed at reducing carbon footprints in wine production.
