This figure includes about 14,840 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions and about 566,900 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. Notably, there is no reported data for Scope 3 emissions. Comparatively, in 2021, ADIA's total emissions were about 71,870 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 19,990 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at about 66,430 kg CO2e. This indicates a significant increase in emissions from 2021 to 2022. ADIA has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or commitments to frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The organisation's emissions data is not cascaded from any parent company, and all reported figures are directly attributed to ADIA. Overall, while ADIA has made strides in reporting its emissions, the lack of reduction commitments highlights an area for potential improvement in its climate strategy.
