Environment & sustainability
Territory Generation is committed to environmental stewardship and focuses on managing and
minimising impacts to the environment. We work hard to balance our responsibility to provide
electricity to our customers with our environmental, social and economic obligations.

REDUCTION
Territory Generation has focused on emissions reduction as a
key indicator in our Statement of Corporate Intent. During the
2021-22 financial year, we commenced additional planning for
long term emissions reduction to support the goal of net zero
emissions by 2050. This strategic view looks at opportunities,
including the direct reduction of emissions through renewable
and enabling technologies, and the use of emissions offsets over
the short and long term.
WASTE DISCHARGE LICENCE RENEWAL
We also commenced the renewal process for our Channel Island
Power Station waste discharge licence via the Environment
Protection Authority (EPA) This two-year waste discharge licence
is in place to ensure the safe and responsible discharge of
'wastewater' produced during electricity generation into Darwin
Harbour. Territory Generation maintains onsite metering and
sampling points in the harbour and reports the results of our
comprehensive monitoring to the EPA each year. Wastewater is
treated in two separate systems and discharged from the cooling
tower and water settling ponds to stormwater drainage systems
that flow into Darwin Harbour.
ENVIRONMENT, SOCIAL
AND GOVERNANCE REPORT
The 2021-22 financial year marked the second annual collation
of our Environment, Social and Governance (ESG). This internal
report addresses environmental, social and governance
principles, processes and procedures in relation to specific
investment, decision-making and risk assessment activities.
The ESG shows Territory Generation's commitment to zero harm
to the environment and demonstrates our social responsibility
and transparency within the communities we operate. We
understand that developing our people and staying conscious of
the desires of our community and stakeholders are fundamental
to our sustainability.
The ESG Report is also key to disclosing environmental, social
and corporate governance data. As with all disclosures, its
purpose is to shed light on Territory Generation's ESG activities
while improving transparency.
