In 2020, Spark Infrastructure reported significant Scope 2 emissions of approximately 1,164,849,000 kg CO2e globally. This figure highlights the company's substantial carbon footprint, primarily from indirect emissions associated with purchased electricity. Notably, in Australia, there were no reported Scope 2 emissions for 2019 and 2018, indicating a potential shift in reporting or operational changes. Spark Infrastructure has set ambitious climate commitments, aiming to reduce both Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions to near zero by 2025. This near-term target reflects a proactive approach to addressing climate change and aligns with industry standards for sustainability. The commitment is documented in their sustainability reports, which outline their strategy for achieving these reductions. The company does not currently report any Scope 3 emissions, which typically encompass indirect emissions from the value chain. However, their focus on reducing Scope 1 and 2 emissions demonstrates a clear commitment to improving their overall environmental impact. As of now, there are no specific Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) targets reported, but the company's initiatives are supported by data from Spark Infrastructure Group, ensuring transparency and accountability in their climate actions.
