Emission Target
Aims for 'unconditional' and 'conditional' reductions according to the BAU baseline reference scenario for: the AFAT sector:
Unconditional Reductions: 4.50% (BAU 2025) and 12.57% (BAU 2030) and Conditional Reductions: 14.60% (BAU-2025) and 22.75% (BAU 2030)
Energy sector: Unconditional Reduction: 11.20% (BAU-2025) and 10.60% (BAU- 2030) and Conditional Reductions: 48% (BAU-2025) and 45% (BAU-2030).
