Insights into NRG Energy's Greenhouse Gas Emissions Pathways
As of 2023, NRG Energy has set greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction targets that cover only its total carbon footprint, without separate targets for operational (Scope 1 and 2) or value chain (Scope 3) emissions. This limits the ability to track progress across distinct emissions categories.
Does NRG Energy have a target to reduce its total carbon footprint?
As of 2023, NRG Energy has set a target to reduce its total carbon footprint, specifically those from Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3 sources.
NRG Energy's most ambitious carbon footprint target is to reduce its scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions from a baseline of 58,000,000 Metric Tonnes of CO2 equivalent (mtCO2e) in 2014, by 50% by 2025.
NRG Energy has already surpassed its total carbon footprint reduction target, with 2023 levels falling below the 2025 value, achieving its climate goal ahead of schedule.
