Environment
Environmental Stewardship
Accelerating decarbonisation while protecting and enhancing the natural environment
The world faces the twin challenges of climate change and biodiversity loss. As a renewable energy developer, owner and operator, we recognise our responsibility to help address both.
Our growing portfolio of solar, battery and distributed energy infrastructure directly helps businesses and communities transition to lower-carbon energy while reducing greenhouse gas emissions across Australia.
At the same time, we are committed to protecting and enhancing the natural environments in which we operate through responsible land stewardship, biodiversity initiatives and sustainable resource management practices.
Biodiversity enhancement
Protecting ecosystems, restoring habitat and delivering positive environmental outcomes across our development and operational sites.
Environmental impact
UN Sustainable Development Goals
We've integrated the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) into our sustainability initiatives. The following SDGs have been embedded into our environmental approach.
Emissions Reduction
Reducing our own operational footprint
Alongside helping our customers decarbonise, we are committed to reducing emissions across our own operations.
Our near-term emissions reduction targets have been independently validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), underscoring our commitment to a 1.5°C pathway. Meeting these targets will require continued investment in renewable energy, electrification and energy efficiency, as we transition away from fossil-fuel-based systems.
42%
Reduction in Scope 1 & Scope 2 emissions targeted by 2030
SBTi Validated
Independently validated emissions reduction targets
1.5°C Pathway
Aligned with global climate science and the Paris Agreement
Scope 3 Focus
Measuring and improving value chain emissions performance
Biodiversity Enhancement
Protecting ecosystems while delivering renewable energy infrastructure
Beyond reducing emissions, we are committed to enhancing biodiversity and improving environmental outcomes across our development and operational sites.
1
Avoid
Biodiversity value is considered throughout project planning and site selection. We seek to avoid environmentally sensitive areas and prioritise lower-impact locations wherever possible.
2
Plan
Site-specific Biodiversity Action Plans guide how we manage, protect and enhance ecosystems across our solar farm portfolio.
3
Enhance
Through habitat restoration, revegetation and responsible land management, we seek to deliver measurable improvements in biodiversity and ecosystem function.
