Reliance Power Limited's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Reliance Power Limited reported significant carbon emissions, totalling approximately 30,525,298,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 60,931,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2. This data highlights the company's substantial carbon footprint, particularly from direct emissions (Scope 1) associated with its operations. For the year 2024, the emissions figures indicate a reduction in Scope 1 emissions to about 9,882,704,000 kg CO2e, while Scope 2 emissions remained consistent at approximately 60,931,000 kg CO2e. This suggests a notable decrease in direct emissions, reflecting the company's efforts to improve operational efficiency. Despite these figures, Reliance Power has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at mitigating its carbon emissions. The absence of defined climate commitments or science-based targets indicates a potential area for improvement in their sustainability strategy. Overall, while Reliance Power Limited has made strides in reducing its emissions, the lack of formal climate pledges or reduction targets may limit its ability to effectively address climate change challenges in the long term.
