In 2022, Alro Steel reported total carbon emissions of approximately 180,412,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 10,814,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 246,369,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3 emissions. This indicates a significant reliance on upstream activities, as Scope 3 emissions represent the largest portion of their total emissions profile. Comparatively, in 2021, Alro Steel's emissions were higher, with Scope 1 at 419,757,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at 30,894,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at 741,847,000 kg CO2e. This trend suggests a reduction in emissions across all scopes from 2021 to 2022, particularly in Scope 1 and Scope 3 emissions. Despite these reductions, Alro Steel has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or climate pledges. The company operates within the steel industry, which is known for its high carbon intensity, and thus faces ongoing pressure to enhance sustainability practices and reduce its carbon footprint.
