Adaro Energy's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Adaro Energy reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,153,875,660 kg CO2e. This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 33,335,170 kg CO2e, which are primarily derived from mobile combustion (approximately 904,523,130 kg CO2e), stationary combustion (about 231,813,620 kg CO2e), and fugitive emissions (around 4,500,116 kg CO2e). The company also recorded Scope 2 emissions of approximately 34,977,050 kg CO2e, mainly from purchased electricity (about 3,621,000 kg CO2e). In comparison, the previous year, 2022, Adaro's total emissions were approximately 1,063,328,500 kg CO2e, with similar distributions across Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions. Notably, the company has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data. Despite the significant emissions figures, Adaro Energy has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments, nor have they participated in the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of documented reduction targets suggests a need for further commitment to climate action within the industry context. Overall, while Adaro Energy's emissions data reflects substantial operational outputs, the lack of defined climate pledges or reduction strategies indicates an area for potential improvement in their sustainability efforts.
