BP PLC (BP.LN, BP) on Tuesday said it has established a $100 million fund for projects aimed at reducing greenhouse-gas emissions in its upstream oil and gas operations.

The U.K. energy giant said the funds will be available over the next three years to support new projects in its exploration and production operations.

BP last year pledged to generate 3.5 million metric tons of sustainable greenhouse-gas emissions reductions across its business by 2025.

The company said the new $100 million fund is in addition to the $500 million a year it invests annually in low-carbon activities such as expanding its alternative energy business.
