In 2020, Vocus Group Limited reported total carbon emissions of approximately 802,080 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 36,347,830 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 528,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3. This indicates a significant reliance on indirect emissions, particularly in Scope 2, which encompasses purchased electricity. Comparatively, in 2019, the company recorded emissions of about 630,780 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 44,010,820 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 917,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3. This data suggests a reduction in Scope 1 emissions from 2019 to 2020, while Scope 2 emissions decreased as well, indicating progress in their climate strategy. Despite these figures, Vocus Group has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, such as those aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of documented reduction targets highlights a potential area for improvement in their climate commitments. Overall, Vocus Group's emissions profile reflects the challenges faced by telecommunications companies in managing carbon footprints, particularly in energy-intensive operations.
