AGEL has been placed in the 'Prime' (B+) band, recognising its robust ESG disclosure practices and high level of transparency.
This achievement brings AGEL one step closer to its goal of being ranked among the top 10 ESG companies in the world in the electric utility sector by FY25. In FY23, AGEL was already ranked among the top 10 companies in the world in the Renewable Energy sector by Sustainalytics.

"Our policies are aligned with these guidelines and ESG targets have been set keeping these policies in mind. Our aim is to be among the top 10 companies of the world in the ESG benchmarking of the electric utility sector by FY25," Mr Jaain added.
