In 2023, Afcons 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 and fugitive emissions. Comparatively, in 2022, the company recorded total emissions of approximately 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 from 2022 to 2023. Despite these figures, Afcons has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of Scope 3 emissions data suggests a potential area for future reporting and improvement. Overall, Afcons is actively monitoring its carbon footprint, but further commitments and strategies may be necessary to enhance its climate action efforts.
