In 2023, Enel Chile reported carbon emissions of approximately 6,660,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 3,100,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 128,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3. This data indicates a significant reliance on indirect emissions, particularly in Scope 3, which encompasses emissions from the entire value chain. In 2022, the company recorded emissions of about 262,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 188,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 10,227,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3. The figures for 2021 were similar, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 7,000,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at 243,000,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at 7,910,000,000 kg CO2e. Enel Chile has set ambitious climate commitments, aiming for zero emissions in Scope 1 by 2025. However, there are currently no disclosed reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other formal reduction frameworks. The company continues to focus on reducing its carbon footprint through various sustainability efforts, although specific reduction initiatives have not been detailed. Overall, Enel Chile's emissions profile reflects a substantial challenge in managing both direct and indirect emissions, particularly as it strives to meet its climate commitments in the coming years.
