BETTER EVERYDAY
At JSW Steel, sustainability is a strategic business imperative. We are cognizant of our responsibility towards balancing growth and sustainability, as the world transitions to a low-carbon future. Our robust decarbonisation roadmap enables us to track our progress against well-defined targets for 2030. Further, we have undertaken various measures aligned with our vision of Zero Harm, and for augmenting product sustainability.
We are committed to reducing our CO2 emission intensity by 42%, achieving 100% recycling of all the solid wastes generated, ensuring no net loss of biodiversity, and reducing freshwater consumption by over 39% by 2030 (from 2005 base year). These targets are anchored in our sustained and conscious efforts to transition towards renewable energy, drive efficiency improvements in energy consumption, process optimisation, increased use of available scraps and support circularity through better resource management, and adoption of Best Available Technologies (BAT).

We have integrated world-class Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) management systems, which we constantly benchmark against global standards to achieve our ultimate goal of zero harm, zero major incidents and zero injuries. With effective leadership, robust systems and a competent workforce, we aspire to be recognised as one of the world's safest organisation by 2030, where the implementation of the ’highest standards of safety leads to greatest levels of productivity’.
Read MoreWe launched SEED, a large-scale, plant-wide decarbonisation programme in Vijayanagar. The programme has generated 100+ improvement initiatives covering a wide range of themes such as enhancing renewable energy capacity, optimising energy consumption, exploring alternate fuels/raw materials and waste heat recovery, among others. These initiatives have a combined annualised CO2 abatement potential of 9+ MnT by 2030. Given the success in Vijayanagar, we plan to extend the programme to our other integrated steel plants.
Read MoreWe have obtained a GreenPro certification for JSW Neosteel TMT bars and in 14 categories of roofing sheets. We also became the first manufacturer to receive the GreenPro ecolabel for its ‘Automotive Steel’ products. The GreenPro-certifications underscore our commitment to environmental stewardship and sustainability while enabling our customers make informed choices to enhance their supply chain sustainability. We have also obtained Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs)-Type III ecolabelling for all 14 finished products from our three ISPs, which enables us to provide reliable, standardised, and comprehensive insights about the product's life cycle to our customers.
