Origin Sustainability Commitments
2050
Reach net zero by 2050
Origin says it aims to reach net zero Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions across its value chain by 2050. Scope 1 covers direct emissions from its own operations, Scope 2 covers emissions from purchased energy, and Scope 3 covers other emissions linked to its wider business. The company says this long-term goal is aligned with the Paris Agreement, which is the global climate deal to limit warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels.
2030
Meet 2030 emissions targets
Origin says its Climate Transition Action Plan includes 2030 emissions reduction targets. It also says it has set 2030 targets for Scope 1 emissions of 330 kt or less, Scope 2 emissions of 70 kt or less, and Scope 3 emissions of 1,460 kt or less. These targets show a medium-term plan to reduce emissions before the 2050 net zero goal. The page does not show the full baseline or progress data in the excerpt provided.
2026
Close its coal station
Origin says its only coal-fired power station is set to close in April 2029. The company says the station still plays a role in meeting customer energy needs until then. This is a dated operational change rather than a broad climate promise, but it matters because coal is one of the highest-emitting fuels used for electricity generation.
