Fund Provider Response
Contact (CEN) generates most of its electricity from renewable sources. On average over the past 5 years, 84% of its generation has been from renewable sources. This increased to 94% in FY23 and is expected to increase to 97-98% over the next two years as it closes its largest thermal plant and completes renewable developments. CEN has committed to Net Zero emissions by 2035.
