85 ANNUAL REPORT 2024 MST GOLF GROUP BERHAD Energy Consumption The Group’s total energy footprint is shaped by fuel consumption from company-owned vehicles and operations, which contributes to Scope 1 emissions, and electricity usage across our retail stores, offices, and facilities, which accounts for Scope 2 emissions. We calculated our total energy consumption in 2024 based on fuel and electricity consumption with similar scope and limitations as our Scope 1 and 2 emission calculations. In 2024, MST Golf's total energy consumption was 21,433,260 MJ, marking an 8.4% increase from 20,886,959 MJ in 2023. Specifically, electricity consumption increased by approximately 17% from 17,338,316 MJ in 2023 to 20,313,260 MJ in 2024, driven by higher electricity use across expanded retail stores, offices, and facilities, reflecting broader operational coverage and growth. In contrast, fuel consumption from non-renewable sources significantly decreased by approximately 68.4%, from 3,548,643 MJ in 2023 to 1,120,000 MJ in 2024. This reduction was primarily due to a change in the conversion methodology for cooking gas (LPG and natural gas), resulting in lower total megajoule (MJ) figures. Actual fuel consumption in operational terms remained relatively stable year-over-year. We will standardise our calculation methodologies to enhance consistency and accuracy in reporting moving forward.

Recognising this gap, we will explore opportunities to integrate renewable energy sources, such as solar energy, to diversify and reduce overall energy impacts.
