Akzo Nobel India Limited's reported carbon emissions

In 2021, Akzo Nobel India Limited reported total carbon emissions of approximately 7,436,000 kg CO2e, comprising about 372,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and about 7,036,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. This data reflects a commitment to transparency in emissions reporting, although no Scope 3 emissions data was disclosed. Comparatively, in 2020, the company recorded total emissions of about 6,890,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 283,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at about 6,607,000 kg CO2e. This indicates an increase in total emissions from 2020 to 2021. Akzo Nobel India Limited is a current subsidiary of Akzo Nobel N.V., and its emissions data is cascaded from the parent company. However, there are no specific reduction targets or climate pledges reported at this level, indicating a potential area for future commitment. Overall, while Akzo Nobel India Limited has made strides in emissions reporting, the absence of defined reduction targets suggests that further action may be necessary to align with industry standards for climate commitments.
