We set our emissions reduction targets in 2022, covering the mandatory emission sources as defined by the CNGP. We are targeting reductions of 43% by 2025 and 50% by 2030, against our base year of 2018–19.
Current modelling indicates we will better our 2025 reduction target. Measured emissions are currently 52.8% lower than the 2018–19 base year. At the end of 2024–25, IR will need to offset all remaining mandatory emissions to achieve carbon neutrality.
