In 2023, Aluminium Bahrain reported total carbon emissions of approximately 12,703,398,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes about 12,683,282,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions and approximately 20,116,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. The company has shown a trend of fluctuating emissions over the years, with total emissions recorded at about 12,290,636,000 kg CO2e in 2022 and 12,503,800,000 kg CO2e in 2021. Aluminium Bahrain's emissions profile indicates a significant reliance on both direct emissions (Scope 1) and indirect emissions from purchased electricity (Scope 2). The GHG emissions intensity ratio has varied, with a reported value of 7,840 kg CO2e per tonne for 2023, reflecting ongoing efforts to manage and reduce emissions intensity. Despite the substantial emissions figures, Aluminium Bahrain has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives under frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of documented reduction targets suggests a need for further clarity on their long-term climate commitments and strategies to mitigate their carbon footprint.
