Pennon has set ambitious climate commitments. The company aims to achieve Net Zero operational carbon emissions by 2030 and has joined the UN-backed Race to Zero commitment, which targets tackling GHG emissions across its entire value chain by 2045.

Near-term, Pennon Group commits to reduce absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions by 68% by the financial year 2032/33, from a 2021/22 base year. This target has been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) as consistent with keeping warming to 1.5°C. They also aim to increase active annual sourcing of renewable electricity from 5% in FY2021 to 100% by FY2030.

For Scope 3 emissions, Pennon Group commits to reduce absolute GHG emissions from specific upstream categories, including 'well to tank' electricity and fuels, the delivery of electricity, waste, business travel, and commuting, by 30% by the financial year 2032 from a FY2021 base year. Furthermore, Pennon commits that 60% of its suppliers, by emissions covering purchased goods and services, capital goods, and upstream transportation and distribution, will have science-based targets by FY2027.
