More and more companies are now growing increasingly conscious of environmental issues. Hence, it came as no surprise when the big ticket jet engine manufacturer Rolls Royce Holdings Plc (OTCMKTS:RLLCF) announced last month that it is going to come up with new products that will be in line with its goal to become a net zero emissions company by 2030.
There was no fresh news about the company in recent days but the Rolls Royce stock made a strong move on Thursday and went up by as much as 42% on the back of heavy interest. However, considering the magnitude of the gains, it might be a good idea to take a closer look at the company’s plans to become net zero emission.
In a statement that was released back on June 18, 2021, the jet engine manufacturer stated that it was speeding up its plans to become a zero carbon company. In order to accomplish that, it has come up with a number of goals which is going to create a map for Rolls Royce to accomplish its goals. Companies which decided to launch such initiatives are often lauded highly and that may often have a positive effect on the stock.
