Insights into Meridian Energy's Greenhouse Gas Emissions Pathways
As of 2024, Meridian Energy has set greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction targets that cover both its operational emissions (Scope 1 and 2) and value chain emissions (Scope 3), offering a comprehensive view of its total carbon footprint.
Does Meridian Energy have a target to reduce the emissions from its operations?
As of 2024, Meridian Energy has set a target to reduce its operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, specifically those from Scope 1 and Scope 2 sources.
Meridian Energy's most ambitious operational target is to reduce these emissions by 90% by 2040, compared to a baseline of 1,034 Metric Tonnes of CO2 equivalent (mtCO2e) in 2021.
Instead of reducing operational emissions, Meridian Energy has increased them, with 2024 levels exceeding those of the 2021 baseline, placing the company well behind its reduction target.
Meridian Energy's Operational (Scope 1+2) Emissions Pathway
Does Meridian Energy have a target to reduce the emissions from its value chain?
As of 2024, Meridian Energy has set a target to reduce its value chain greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, covering 1 out of the 15 Scope 3 categories defined by the GHG Protocol.
Meridian Energy's most ambitious value chain target is to reduce these emissions by 90% by 2040, compared to a baseline of 32,846 Metric Tonnes of CO2 equivalent (mtCO2e) in 2021.
Instead of reducing value chain emissions, Meridian Energy has increased them, with 2024 levels exceeding those of the 2021 baseline, placing the company well behind its reduction target.
