In 2024, Alba reported total carbon emissions of approximately 453,220 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 56,090 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 44,050 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. Notably, Scope 1 emissions included about 217,810 kg CO2e from mobile combustion and 115,450 kg CO2e from process emissions. The total emissions for 2023 were approximately 410,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 54,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 41,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3, indicating a slight increase in emissions across the board. Alba's global emissions data for 2023 showed a total of approximately 1,650,630 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 645,970 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at 977,840 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at 26,820 kg CO2e. This data reflects a comprehensive approach to emissions reporting, covering all three scopes. Despite the detailed emissions reporting, Alba has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or commitments to frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The company’s emissions data is not cascaded from a parent organization, ensuring that the reported figures are solely reflective of Alba's operations. Overall, while Alba has made strides in emissions transparency, the lack of defined reduction strategies highlights an area for potential improvement in their climate commitments.
