The company’s emissions data is sourced directly from Aluminium Corporation of China Limited, with no cascading from a parent or related organisation. The company operates within the aluminium sector, which is known for its high carbon intensity, particularly in the electrolytic aluminium production process, where emissions can reach approximately 12,250 kg CO2e per tonne produced. Chalco's commitment to addressing climate change remains unclear, as no formal climate pledges or reduction initiatives have been documented. Overall, while Chalco has made strides in reporting its emissions, further transparency regarding its climate commitments and reduction strategies would be beneficial for stakeholders and the environment.
