Energy Queensland's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Energy Queensland reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,810,681,000 kg CO2e, which encompasses Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions. This figure represents a slight increase from the previous year's emissions of about 1,768,438,000 kg CO2e in 2022. The company has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data. Despite the increase in emissions, Energy Queensland has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. There are no climate pledges or SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) targets reported, indicating a lack of formalised strategies for emissions reduction at this time. Energy Queensland operates within the energy sector in Australia, where the focus on carbon emissions and climate action is increasingly critical. The absence of reduction targets suggests that the company may need to enhance its climate strategy to align with industry standards and expectations for sustainability.
