Banking on Sustainability

We believe that true progress is measured not only in financial growth but also in environmental responsibility. SBI actively integrates sustainability into its business practices, supporting green initiatives, renewable energy and eco-conscious development for a healthier planet.

The Bank targets a 7.5% green portfolio by 2030, backed by $3.07 billion secured from DFIs and MDBs, $ 1 billion raised for small farmers, $1050 Million through green bonds, and `128.31 Crore raised through Green Deposits for EV loans. Strengthened ESG frameworks, expanded solar financing, and the launch of SBI-Green are driving sustainable finance initiatives.

SBI has embedded sustainability across operations with solar power plants, rainwater harvesting systems, sewage treatment plants, and energy-efficient buildings.
Waste is managed through composting units, Organic Waste Converters, and vermicomposting facilities, while plastic-free zones and environmental campaigns reinforce eco-consciousness.

Advancing towards Carbon Neutrality by 2030, SBI has installed over 31 MW of solar capacity, achieved 61 IGB-Ccertified buildings, and 542 rainwater harvesting systems, supported by strong employee engagement through Green Clubs and ESG workshops.
