AK Medical's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, AK Medical, headquartered in China (CN), reported no specific carbon emissions data. However, the company has disclosed its Scope 2 emissions intensity, which stands at approximately 5.0 kg CO2e per unit of revenue (CNY) for the year. This figure reflects the indirect emissions associated with the electricity consumed in its operations. Looking back at previous years, in 2018, AK Medical reported total emissions of 3,693,100 kg CO2e for Scope 3, 1,514,900 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 99,300 kg CO2e for Scope 1. The company has not set any specific reduction targets or initiatives, nor does it appear to have cascaded emissions data from a parent or related organization. Overall, while AK Medical has made strides in measuring its emissions, it currently lacks formal commitments or targets for reducing its carbon footprint. The absence of specific reduction initiatives highlights an opportunity for the company to enhance its climate strategy in alignment with industry standards.
