Beach Energy's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Beach Energy reported total carbon emissions of approximately 407,908,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions accounting for about 391,386,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at approximately 16,522,000 kg CO2e. This marked a significant reduction from previous years, particularly from 2022, when total emissions were around 455,209,000 kg CO2e. Over the years, Beach Energy has demonstrated a commitment to reducing its carbon footprint. In 2022, the company achieved total emissions of approximately 455,209,000 kg CO2e, down from about 489,881,000 kg CO2e in 2020. The trend indicates a focus on improving operational efficiency and reducing emissions intensity. Despite these reductions, Beach Energy has not publicly committed to specific science-based targets or formal climate pledges. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while the company is actively reducing emissions, it may not yet have formalised its long-term climate strategy in line with industry standards. Overall, Beach Energy's emissions data reflects a proactive approach to managing carbon emissions, with a clear downward trend in total emissions over recent years. However, the lack of formal reduction targets indicates an area for potential growth in their climate commitments.
