Aje Group, headquartered in Peru, reported its carbon emissions data for 2018, with an energy intensity of approximately 6,720 kg CO2e per metric ton produced. The previous year's data from 2017 indicated a slightly lower energy intensity of about 6,280 kg CO2e per metric ton. However, specific emissions data for Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 are not disclosed. Aje Group has made commitments to climate initiatives, including membership in the Business Ambition for 1.5°C (BA1.5) since November 2021. Despite these commitments, the company has faced challenges, as its near-term reduction targets have been removed, and it has not committed to a net-zero target. The company’s climate commitments are primarily sourced from Ajegroup SA, with no cascaded data from a parent organization. Overall, while Aje Group has shown some engagement with climate initiatives, the lack of specific emissions data and the removal of reduction targets highlight areas for improvement in its climate strategy.
