Aep

AEP's most recent reported emissions for 2024 show a Scope 1 total of approximately 46.9 billion kg CO2e, Scope 2 market-based emissions of about 1.1 billion kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions including approximately 2.8 billion kg CO2e from purchased goods and services and 33.6 billion kg CO2e from fuel and energy-related activities. For 2023, total emissions were approximately 43.4 billion kg CO2e for Scope 1, 1.2 billion kg CO2e for Scope 2 (market-based), and 40.3 billion kg CO2e for Scope 3. In 2022, Scope 1 emissions were approximately 51.2 billion kg CO2e, Scope 2 (market-based) were about 353.7 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 were approximately 41.8 billion kg CO2e.

AEP has set ambitious climate commitments, including a goal to achieve net-zero Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2045. They are also working towards an 80% reduction in Scope 1 GHG emissions by 2030, with a 2005 baseline. Additionally, AEP aims to reduce its Scope 2 emissions by 50% from a 2020 baseline by 2030, and has a near-term goal to reduce Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions to near zero by 2025. These targets reflect AEP's commitment to transforming its generating capacity portfolio towards a majority renewable energy base.
