Singtel sets new emission targets

It aims for a group-wide 55% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions.

Singtel will make more aggressive cuts to its greenhouse gas emissions to align with the goals of the Paris Climate Agreement to limit global warming to 1.5°C.

The company aims for a group-wide 55% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 direct and indirect greenhouse gas emissions and a 40% reduction in Scope 3 third-party emissions by 2030, using 2023 as the base year.

The new targets set by Singtel have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), marking a first in the telecoms space in Asia.

“The SBTi Target Validation Team has confirmed that the net-zero goal of 2045, which Singtel had brought forward from 2050 in July 2023, is closely aligned with SBTi’s most stringent criteria,” Singtel stated.

Sustainability

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
