Overall Environment

21. Briefly describe practical actions the company has taken during the reporting period and/or plans to take to implement the environment principles, including any challenges faced and actions taken towards prevention and/or remediation.

The green energy management initiative has seen the deployment of solar energy at the Econet offices in Msasa, Graniteside, Livingstone, Willowvale, Bulawayo, Mutare, and Masvingo switching centers. In the reportig period, there was a 30% increase in the number of base stations that are solar- powered. FY21 closed with 172 base stations that are now operating on solar to reduce grid usage, minimise greenhouse gas emissions and decrease our carbon footprint. The improvement in the utility grid power situation in the country, characterized by COVID-19 lockdowns and additional deployment of solar energy infrastructure, resulted in a 35.7% reduction in diesel usage. This decrease resulted in direct emissions - Scope 1 carbon footprint - decreasing by 25.2% from 29,217 tCO2e in FY20 to 21,837 tCO2e in FY21. Scope 2 emissions reduced by 20.1% from 32,436 tCO2e to 25,903 tCO2e attributable to decreased utility electricity consumption due to the solar initiative rollout and usage. These greening initiatives resulted in 6,940 tCO2e total carbon emissions avoided in FY21 and a decrease of 6.52% compared to FY20.
