In 2023, Doosan reported total carbon emissions of approximately 75,152,000 kg CO2e, comprising 24,186,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 50,966,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. The company has also disclosed Scope 3 emissions, which total about 49,890,000 kg CO2e, including significant contributions from purchased goods and services (70,660,000 kg CO2e) and employee commuting (1,497,000 kg CO2e). Over the years, Doosan has demonstrated a commitment to reducing its carbon footprint. For instance, in 2020, the total emissions were approximately 93,699,000 kg CO2e, indicating a reduction in emissions by about 18.6% by 2023. However, there are currently no specific reduction targets or initiatives outlined in their climate commitments, such as those aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Doosan's emissions data from previous years shows a trend of fluctuating emissions, with Scope 1 and 2 emissions peaking at approximately 172,400,000 kg CO2e in 2016. The company has made strides in improving its emissions intensity, with a reported GHG intensity of about 0.000066 kg CO2e per unit of revenue in 2023. Overall, while Doosan has made progress in reducing its carbon emissions, the absence of formal reduction targets suggests an opportunity for further commitment to climate action.
