Allkem's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Allkem reported total carbon emissions of approximately 134,700,000 kg CO2e, encompassing Scope 1 and 2 emissions. This figure reflects the company's operational impact, with an emissions intensity of about 3,350 kg CO2e per tonne of lithium carbonate equivalent (LCE) produced. In the previous year, 2022, Allkem's emissions were approximately 120,708,000 kg CO2e, which included 119,700,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 82,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. This indicates a significant operational footprint, particularly in Scope 1 emissions, which are directly linked to the company's activities. Despite the substantial emissions figures, Allkem has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments. The company is a current subsidiary of Allkem Pty Ltd, with emissions data cascaded from this parent organization. Additionally, initiatives related to climate commitments may be influenced by its relationship with Arcadium Lithium plc, which operates at a higher cascade level. Overall, while Allkem's emissions data highlights the company's environmental impact, the absence of defined reduction targets suggests a need for further commitment to climate action within the industry context.
