SJVN Limited's reported carbon emissions
In 2025, SJVN Limited reported total emissions of approximately 3,168,200 kg CO2e from its operations in India, comprising 476,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 3,118,200 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. This data reflects the company's commitment to transparency in its carbon footprint, although no Scope 3 emissions data was disclosed. Looking back to 2024, SJVN Limited's emissions were approximately 12,000,800 kg CO2e, with 648,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 11,456,800 kg CO2e from Scope 2. The trend indicates a significant reliance on electricity consumption, as evidenced by the higher Scope 2 emissions. Despite the detailed emissions reporting, SJVN Limited has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments. The absence of SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets suggests that the company has yet to formalise its long-term climate strategy. Overall, while SJVN Limited is actively disclosing its emissions data, further commitments to reduction targets and initiatives would enhance its climate action profile.
