Climate Change
The climate is changing and the consequences will be far-reaching.
Asahi Beverages recognises we can use our large supply chain and extensive partnerships to drive positive climate action.
To help tackle this issue, 100% of our purchased electricity will be sourced from or matched with renewable sources by 2025. This will involve scaling our on-site solar generation to reduce what we purchase, and matching our remaining energy requirements through Power Purchase Agreements which support the development of renewable energy projects.
Our parent company Asahi Group Holdings has obtained approval from the Science Based Targets (SBT) initiative for the Group's 2030 and 2050 targets. SBT is a global initiative that validates if company-set goals for Co2 reduction are in line with scientific evidence. In line with these global targets, we are working on a plan to reduce and offset emissions across our supply chain to achieve net zero by 2050 - from the farmers who grow our ingredients through to our manufacturing sites and the vehicles that deliver our beverages.
What we are targeting - our Climate Change goals:
- 100% of our purchased electricity to be sourced from or matched with renewable sources by 2025
- Reduce Scope 1 & 2 CO2 emissions in our operations by 50% by 2025*
- Reduce Scope 3 CO2 emissions across our entire supply chain
- Reach net zero CO2 emissions by 2050
*vs a baseline year of 2019
