In 2024, the company reported total greenhouse gas emissions of approximately 10.71 billion kg CO2e. This figure encompasses Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions.

They also aim to achieve a 33% renewable energy usage rate by 2030. A dedicated Carbon Management Committee (CMC), formed in 2022, oversees company-wide strategies to reach its Net Zero target. This committee comprises technical experts from various departments, underscoring a cross-functional approach to emissions reduction. The company's reporting indicates a focus on key Scope 3 categories, with purchased goods and services being a significant contributor, accounting for approximately 2.58 billion kg CO2e in 2024. Fuel and energy-related activities also represent a substantial portion, at about 712.53 million kg CO2e for the same year.
