Telenor has established several ambitious climate commitments. The company is committed to reaching net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across its entire value chain by 2045, with near-term targets validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Specifically, Telenor Group aims to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 69% by 2030 from a 2019 base year. Additionally, it commits to reducing absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 28% within the same timeframe. For its Nordic operations, Telenor targets carbon-neutral business operations by 2030 (from a 2019 base year), focusing on energy efficiency and purchasing renewable electricity. The Asian operations are targeting a 50% reduction in GHG emissions by 2030 (from a 2019 base year), primarily through substituting diesel generators with solar solutions and procuring renewable electricity. Telenor also has a long-term goal to reduce Scope 1, 2, and 3 GHG emissions by 90% by 2045 from a 2019 base year.
