In the realm of emissions management, the Adani Portfolio companies exhibited a nuanced approach. Despite a 9% increase in absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, a remarkable reduction of 50% in emission intensity (measured in MtCO 2 e per rupee of turnover) was achieved. This achievement owes its success to the strategic implementation of energy-efficient practices, alongside a deliberate shift towards renewable energy and cleaner fuels. The inclusion of new businesses enhanced the turnover, moderating energy intensity. This balance reflects the Group’s commitment to sustainability and showcases its adeptness in navigating the complex landscape of emissions management with professionalism. How the Adani Portfolio is moderating GHG emissions The Adani Portfolio stands at the forefront of a transformative movement, demonstrating a deep commitment to environmental responsibility and sustainable practices. Guided by a proactive approach to climate change, we invested in a range of initiatives aimed at reducing carbon footprint.

This commitment not only aligns with global climate goals but also underscores our dedication to being a catalyst for positive change in the realm of environmental stewardship.” The Group is investing in the following areas to reduce our carbon footprint: Energy efficiency initiatives Decarbonisation of fleet Green energy from grid Rooftop solar systems Energy audits and energy efficiency initiatives At Adani Portfolio, audits are conducted to investigate opportunities for reducing energy usage. These audits involve evaluating energy consumption, identifying potential areas for reduction, conducting cost- benefit analyses, and determining potential savings, which can lead to reduced energy consumption, increased productivity, and innovation opportunities. The Group implemented energy efficiency projects to reduce carbon emissions across portfolio companies. The energy consumption was moderated through the installation of energy efficient devices/equipment, lighting systems etc. Fleet decarbonisation The Adani Portfolio recognises the need to decarbonise its fleet. Electric vehicles (EVs) represent a decisive step towards the moderation of greenhouse gas emissions related to transportation. Adani’s portfolio businesses are replacing diesel-based vehicles with EVs through the following initiatives: ATGL: The business switched from diesel to natural gas for their cascade carrying fleet vehicles. This includes light commercial vehicles (LCVs), heavy commercial vehicles (HCVs) and administration vehicles. During the reporting period, business successfully converted all its fleet vehicles to CNG and intends to maintain this status quo in the coming years wherever the CNG ecosystem is already in place.
