This includes a near-term goal to reach net zero Scope 1 and 2 emissions at its Nova Operation by FY25, which was reportedly achieved by 30 June 2025 through various emission reduction activities and the voluntary cancellation of Australian Carbon Credit Units (ACCUs). Additionally, IGO has implemented decarbonisation projects at Nova, resulting in a 22% reduction in emissions since the 2019 baseline. Furthermore, IGO aims to reduce its Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 10% from a FY20 baseline through targeted projects, with a timeframe set from 2020 to 2022. The company continues to pursue pathways to meet its long-term net zero goals, demonstrating a commitment to sustainability and responsible environmental stewardship.
