In 2023, ADATA reported total carbon emissions of approximately 171,362,450 kg CO2e, with emissions distributed across all three scopes: 622,490 kg CO2e (Scope 1), 9,698,940 kg CO2e (Scope 2), and 171,362,450 kg CO2e (Scope 3). This represents a significant increase in emissions compared to 2022, where total emissions were about 93,999,200 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions at 360,270 kg CO2e and 8,905,590 kg CO2e, respectively. Despite the increase in emissions, ADATA has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or SBTi commitments. The company does not appear to inherit emissions data from a parent organisation, maintaining its own reporting standards. Overall, ADATA's emissions profile highlights the need for enhanced climate commitments and strategies to address its carbon footprint, particularly in Scope 3 emissions, which constitute the majority of its total emissions.
