The absence of defined reduction strategies suggests a need for enhanced commitment to climate action and transparency in their emissions management. Overall, while Reliance Power Limited has made strides in reducing its carbon emissions, the lack of formal reduction targets underscores the importance of establishing clear climate commitments to align with global sustainability goals.
