In 2023, RCBC reported carbon emissions of approximately 9,574,000 kg CO2e, all of which were classified under Scope 2 emissions, indicating indirect emissions from purchased electricity. This marks a slight increase from 2022, where emissions were about 9,463,580 kg CO2e, also solely from Scope 2. Notably, RCBC has consistently reported zero Scope 1 emissions across the years. In 2021, RCBC's total emissions were significantly higher, with Scope 2 emissions at approximately 13,307,600 kg CO2e and Scope 3 emissions reaching about 431,866,920 kg CO2e, highlighting a substantial indirect impact from their value chain. The emissions from 2020 were reported at around 11,652,000 kg CO2e, again only from Scope 2. Despite these figures, RCBC has not established specific reduction targets or climate pledges, indicating a potential area for future commitment. The absence of documented reduction initiatives suggests that while the bank is aware of its emissions, it has yet to formalise a strategy for significant reductions. Overall, RCBC's emissions data reflects a focus on managing indirect emissions, particularly from electricity usage, while the lack of Scope 1 emissions demonstrates effective management of direct emissions sources.
