Managing emissions is crucial to our strategy to mitigate and address climate-related issues. Preparing a Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions inventory is the initial step in effectively managing emissions. It provides a baseline to track progress and identifies areas for improvement for carbon footprint reduction.

For this, we have undertaken a comprehensive GHG emissions inventorization of our assets to measure both direct and indirect emissions caused by our operations. This GHG inventory forms the foundation for developing a comprehensive Net Zero emissions roadmap, guiding us in setting ambitious yet achievable goals to transition towards a low-carbon future. The total avoided emissions for the reporting year were 49,693 mt CO2e.

We are committed to setting science-based targets by 2024 for our REIT assets and by 2025 for our non-REIT assets. We have developed a high-level Net Zero emissions roadmap to reach out Net Zero targets by 2040 or sooner. In FY 2023-24, we intend to further broaden our emissions scope from the portfolio level to assetlevel decarbonization plans, including both operational and supply chain carbon emissions.

To achieve the target of Net Zero by 2040 or sooner across all our assets, we have devised Net Zero emissions program. The Net Zero emissions program encompasses our decarbonization strategy, which prioritizes energy reduction and renewable energy procurement.

Our Net Zero Emission Strategy is Based on the Following Three Pillars:

ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND END-OF-LIFE UPGRADES

  • Direct investment in ROI projects
  • Equipment at end of life to be replaced by efficient solutions
  • Assisting occupants in adopting energy efficiency

RENEWABLE ENERGY PROCUREMENT

  • Providing energy replacement for both common area as well as occupant occupied areas

JUDICIOUS USE OF CARBON OFFSETS

  • Providing solutions for occupants with targets sooner than 2040
