Akwel's reported carbon emissions

In 2021, Akwel reported total carbon emissions of approximately 64,436,490 kg CO2e, comprising about 29,996,330 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and about 34,440,160 kg CO2e from Scope 2. The previous year, 2020, saw higher emissions at approximately 82,791,910 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at about 49,812,860 kg CO2e and Scope 2 at about 32,979,050 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, Akwel has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented reduction strategies suggests a need for enhanced climate commitments within the industry context. As a company headquartered in France, Akwel is positioned to align with European climate goals, yet further transparency regarding their climate action plans would be beneficial.
