Climate Policy Engagement Overview: BHP has a strategic level of engagement with climate policy. The company demonstrates top-line support for climate action but displays a mix of positive and negative positions on specific federal and state-based climate-related regulations in Australia, including the Safeguard Mechanism. BHP also shows inconsistent positioning on the energy transition, supporting renewables-based decarbonization efforts on the one hand, while advocating a technology-neutral approach that appears to entail nuclear and fossil gas on the other. The company also appears to support a future for metallurgical coal in the steelmaking process.
