UEM Edgenta has established policies, frameworks, and obtained certifications to address climate change and reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, demonstrating its commitment to sustainability and alignment with global environmental standards. The UEM Edgenta Sustainability Policy serves as the cornerstone of our commitment to environmental responsibility, outlining clear strategies to reduce resource consumption, enhance energy efficiency, and monitor GHG emissions across all levels of operations. This policy emphasises the integration of sustainability principles into business processes, ensuring that environmental considerations are embedded in decision-making. A key focus is on achieving Net Zero targets, addressing Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, while expanding efforts to include Scope 3 emissions. Additionally, the policy aligns with global and local reporting standards, including the Bursa Malaysia Sustainability Reporting Guidelines and FTSE4Good Index requirements, reinforcing UEM Edgenta’s commitment to transparent and accountable sustainability practices. We have also enhanced our Risk Management Framework (RMF) to integrate climate-related risks, with the Board having oversight on addressing physical and transition risks. In 2024, we expanded our emissions monitoring capabilities to include newly acquired locations, ensuring they align with our Group sustainability goals. We introduced ESG KPIs and cascaded our Sustainability Policy across these sites, fostering a culture of environmental responsibility. Beyond internal efforts, UEM Edgenta has actively contributed to sustainability policy development, participating in a consultation paper on sustainability disclosure and, through OPUS Energy, providing input to climate disclosures and the implementation of Malaysia’s National Energy Transition Roadmap (NETR) launched by the Ministry of Economy of Malaysia (MOE). Additionally, our involvement in Climate Governance Malaysia (CGM) underscores our commitment to sustainability practices while driving meaningful industry advancements.
