In 2023, Hindustan Aeronautics reported total carbon emissions of approximately 46,496,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 90,615,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2. This represents a slight decrease in Scope 2 emissions compared to 2022, where emissions were about 105,578,000 kg CO2e, while Scope 1 emissions increased from approximately 46,838,000 kg CO2e in the previous year. For 2024, the company anticipates an increase in emissions, with projected Scope 1 emissions at about 48,876,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at approximately 89,066,000 kg CO2e. Despite these fluctuations, Hindustan Aeronautics has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The company’s emissions data indicates a focus on managing Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, which are directly related to their operations and energy consumption. However, there is no available information regarding Scope 3 emissions or any formal climate pledges. As such, Hindustan Aeronautics appears to be in the early stages of developing comprehensive climate commitments within the aerospace industry context.
