Aceros Arequipa has committed to near-term climate targets, although specific reduction targets have not been disclosed. The company is not currently committed to a net-zero target. Their operations are situated within the mining sector, specifically focusing on iron and other metals, which typically have high carbon emissions due to energy-intensive processes. Overall, while Aceros Arequipa has made strides in monitoring and reporting its emissions, further details on specific reduction initiatives and long-term climate strategies would enhance their commitment to sustainability.
