In 2023, Afcons Infrastructure Limited reported total carbon emissions of approximately 217,145,960 kg CO2e, comprising 156,282,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions and 60,863,960 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. The Scope 1 emissions primarily stem from mobile combustion (about 123,181,560 kg CO2e), with additional contributions from stationary combustion (approximately 31,606,970 kg CO2e) and fugitive emissions (around 1,493,470 kg CO2e). Comparatively, in 2022, the company recorded total emissions of about 220,019,700 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 159,231,110 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 60,683,310 kg CO2e. This indicates a slight reduction in total emissions year-on-year. Afcons has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data, nor have they set specific reduction targets or climate pledges as part of their sustainability initiatives. The absence of such commitments suggests a potential area for improvement in their climate strategy. Overall, while Afcons has made strides in tracking and reporting their emissions, the lack of defined reduction targets may limit their long-term climate impact.
