Gas distribution network SGN has achieved a milestone in its ambition to achieve net-zero by 2045, gaining the Taking Action tier of the Carbon Trust’s Route to Net Zero Standard for its carbon emissions reductions.

The Carbon Trust’s Route to Net Zero Standard is the only certification helping organisations around the world to measure and manage their emissions, inform carbon reduction strategies, and align targets for the future with tailored advice from trusted experts.

Carolina Karlstrom, head of sustainability at SGN, said: “The quantitative requirements of the Route to Net Zero Standard were met with a 4 per cent reduction of our carbon footprint. Assessed against the carbon management requirements of the Route to Net Zero Standard, we received a score of 72.5 per cent across our governance, implementation, measurement and stakeholder engagement processes and activities. In particular, we’re proud of our scores on supply chain engagement and staff engagement, where we scored 90 per cent.”
