SCG is firmly on the path toward achieving Net Zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 and is working towards its targets, validated by the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi), to reduce direct and energy-related emissions (Scopes 1 and 2) by 25% by 2030 compared to a 2020 base year, and cut value chain emissions from fossil fuel sales to external customers (Scope 3) by at least 25% by 2031 against a 2021 base year. To drive these goals, SCG has adopted the Marginal Abatement Cost Curve (MACC) as a tool for prioritizing decarbonization projects based on their business value and decarbonization potential. Using this tool, projects are categorized into three groups: 1) Do Now, which are cost-effective and ready for immediate implementation; 2) To Decide, which are technologically ready but require supporting factors to be investment-worthy; and 3) Decide Later, which represent high-potential projects awaiting future technological maturity or more favorable pricing.

Climate Resilience and Energy

SCG has demonstrated its commitment to take climate action. In the latest development, SCG joins the

SCG has established both short-term and long-term greenhouse gas emission reduction targets in accordance with the Paris Agreement to limit global temperature rise to no more than 1.5 degrees Celsius by 2050. In 2021, SCG joined the Science Based Target initiative (SBTi), which certifies organizations’ targets according to scientific calculation standards. In 2023, SCG received SBTi certification for its near-term targets to reduce GHG Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 25% by 2030 compared to the base year of 2020 and decrease GHG Scope 3 emissions from fossil fuel sales to external customers by at least 25% by 2031, compared to the base year of 2021.

While the SBTi certification marks a significant milestone in SCG’s journey toward building a green society, numerous challenges remain as success requires cooperation across all sectors, including government agencies, private organizations, and civil society, both at national and global levels, such as the Federation of Thai Industries, the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD), the UN Global Compact Network Thailand (UNGCNT), and the Thailand Business Council for Sustainable Development (TBCSD), with the goal of joining forces to accelerate Thailand’s transition to a low-carbon society while leaving no one behind.

Near Term Target has been validated by SBTi.

SCG commits to reduce absolute scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions 25% by 2030 from a 2020 base year*. SCG also commits to reduce absolute scope 3 GHG emissions from the use of sold fossil fuels 25% by 2031 from 2021 base year.

*The target boundary includes biogenic emissions and removals from bioenergy feedstocks.

These new and more ambitious targets challenge SCG to step up innovation and adoption of energy transition technology, in tandem with collaboration with supplier to reduce GHG scope 3.

  • To ensure this strategy is implemented systematically and linked to business decision-making, SCG has updated its SCG Sustainable Development Framework to align with the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) standards. Comprising four core elements: Governance, Strategy, Risk Management, and Metrics & Targets, this framework enables SCG to integrate financially material topics into strategic planning, capital allocation, and the management of risks and opportunities across the value chain. This approach enhances transparency, builds credibility in disclosure, and strengthens competitiveness and resilience in a rapidly evolving global context.

Corporate Governance

SCG operates under the principles of good corporate governance, prioritizing transparency and verifiability in data management in alignment with both domestic and international sustainability regulations to accelerate the transition toward sustainable operations and achieve the ultimate goal of Net Zero emissions. To support this systemic transformation, SCG has fostered strong collaborations across the entire value chain with all sectors, including the government, the private sector, and local communities.

In 2025, SCG announced the SCG Net Zero Policy, which defines a clear and unified operational framework for all business units across SCG. Under this policy, the Board of Directors plays a pivotal role in determining the organization’s sustainability direction and strategies, overseeing operations to ensure alignment with the SCG Net Zero Roadmap, and systematically monitoring and evaluating ESG performance on a continuous basis.

Corporate Governance Structure

SCG’s governance structure is systematically integrated to ensure transparency and efficiency in strategic decision-making, execution, and monitoring. Disclosures are conducted in accordance with international standards through annual reports, sustainability reports, and SCG’s website to ensure stakeholders have access to all material data.

SCG also employs internal controls and multi-level auditing systems, comprising internal audits, third-party verification, and mechanisms for ethical governance and whistleblowing. Sustainability performance and progress on key initiatives are regularly reported to the Board of Directors to enable comprehensive oversight and a timely response to emerging changes.

To achieve tangible results in sustainability governance, SCG has defined clear roles and responsibilities across all levels of the organization, from the Board of Directors, which steers the organization’s strategic direction, to sub-committees, executives, and operational units in each function. These roles are systematically linked to encompasses policy formulation, strategy implementation, performance tracking, and reporting to stakeholders.

  • SCG has integrated climate change and related issues, including TCDF, in SCG managing structures from top management to operations business; The Board of Directors, President & CEO, The Environmental Sustainability Development Committee, SCG Sustainable Development Committee (SDC), SCG Climate Change & Energy Committee, SCG Risk Management Committee, and business units.

Risk Management

SCG prioritizes the development of an effective risk management system to accommodate the rapidly changing business landscape. To this end, the Company continuously monitors and analyzes key risk factors, encompassing material topics such as climate change, digital technology development, supply chain volatility, and evolving sustainability regulations.

Risk management is conducted through a systematic process, beginning with the analysis of global megatrends to assess systemic risks that could impact the industry, followed by an analysis of the specific challenges facing each business. The results of the analysis are then translated into clear operational guidelines aligned with the context of each business unit, enabling SCG to conduct comprehensive strategic planning while maintaining the flexibility needed to respond to risks as they arise.

SCG has integrated key material topics identified through the double-materiality assessment across all business units to formulate “sustainability-related risks and opportunities” (SROs). These SROs are directly linked to the medium-term plan (MTP), which allows each business unit to systematically define strategies, allocate resources, and evaluate investments that address medium-to-long-term risks and opportunities, ensuring alignment with organizational goals.

This integration strengthens efficient coordination across the organization by establishing a shared operating framework for all units, while still allowing each business to tailor strategies to its specific context. Furthermore, it fosters collaboration, knowledge exchange, and joint innovation development between business units, thereby enabling SCG to accurately anticipate risks, respond promptly to changes, transform challenges into opportunities for value creation and competitive advantage, and ultimately support robust and sustainable long-term growth.

SCG conduct risk assessments against international frameworks to drive change; integrate risk assessments

across multiple sustainability-related financial disclosure frameworks; and analyze the interconnectivity of

risks across short-, medium-, and long-term timeframes. The frameworks used include:

  • Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD): Analyze climate risks, including transition risks, such as changes in policies and regulations and technological changes, and physical risks from natural disasters.
  • Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD): Assess risks arising from reliance on and impact on natural resources, biodiversity loss, and ecosystem degradation.

SCG has established processes for identifying, assessing, and managing issues related to climate change, including physical risks, transition risks, and adaptation plans in the current, medium-term, and long-term. SCG has a risk assessment system in place for all its units, requiring assessments of climate change-related risks, such as flooding and drought, to be conducted at least quarterly or when significant changes occur.
