Hut 8 Mining Corp., is pleased to announce its Environmental, Social and Governance (“ESG”) objectives as a part of its efforts to lead the global industry in innovation, inclusivity and sustainability.
“Technology, sustainability, inclusivity and innovation are part of our DNA at Hut 8, and we are proud to lead positive change in our sector, which we hope will build a legacy that our team and shareholders can be proud of,” said Jaime Leverton, Chief Executive Officer of Hut 8.
While the Company is sharing its objectives and goals today, ESG is not a new focus for Hut 8 and has been one of its key priorities under Leverton’s leadership. The primary objectives are centered around a suite of goals that extend to all aspects of corporate social responsibility, including:
Hut 8’s approach to ESG will continually adapt based on new data and insights, which are consistent and in line with our near and long-term business strategy. Our Company’s long-term strategy will include actions focused on renewable energy and continued collaboration with suppliers to further reduce emissions.
In taking a proactive role in driving progress for the digital asset industry, Hut 8 became a founding member of the Bitcoin Mining Council in 2021. The Bitcoin Mining Council is a voluntary group of digital asset miners that promotes energy usage transparency and encourages the use of renewable energy sources. Additionally, Hut 8 joined the Crypto Climate Accord, which is the result of a collaborative effort inspired by the Paris Climate Agreement. As part of Hut 8’s ESG goals, the Company will be referencing its disclosures against the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) and the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) and intends to progressively enhance these disclosures over time.
