India’s Jindal Stainless Limited (JSL) will reduce carbon emissions from its mills by 50 percent well ahead of its target of 2035, as various sustainable projects will be completed earlier, a company statement said on Monday, December 11.
The company is investing an estimated $84 million in sustainability projects that will reduce carbon emissions by 1.5 million mt per year, the statement said.
“We are helping in building a modern, sustainable world with the best-in-class technology, innovation, and investment in R&D to meet the evolving customer requirements to offer high-class stainless steel solutions,” JSL managing director Abhyuday Jindal stated. He said set a mid-term target that by 2035 the company would achieve 50 percent reduction of emissions from the baseline year 2021-2022 but the target would be achieved much earlier.
