Genee has established a science aligned carbon reduction pathway to support its commitment to achieving Net Zero emissions by 2030. This pathway reflects the need for early and sustained emissions reductions, particularly given that the majority of Genee’s footprint arises from Scope 3 activities such as supply chain and travel. The targets are designed to deliver a linear and achievable reduction trajectory, while prioritising absolute emissions reductions over reliance on offsetting. This approach ensures that meaningful operational and behavioural changes are embedded across the organisation. To support delivery of its Net Zero commitment, Genee has established a cumulative carbon budget covering the period 2025 to 2030. This budget sets a clear limit on the total greenhouse gas emissions the organisation can generate over this period, ensuring that annual reductions remain aligned with its long term decarbonisation pathway. Based on the 2025 baseline and projected reduction trajectory, Genee has set a total carbon budget of ≤9 tCO₂e for the period to 2030. This reflects a front loaded approach to emissions reduction, prioritising early action to minimise cumulative impact and reduce reliance on offsetting in later years.
