Ambatovy Joint-Venture's reported carbon emissions
In 2022, Ambatovy Joint-Venture reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,931,000,000 kg CO2e, with emissions distributed equally across all three scopes: Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3. This marked an increase from 2021, where emissions were about 1,621,000,000 kg CO2e. The company experienced a significant reduction in emissions in 2020, with total emissions dropping to approximately 635,000,000 kg CO2e, indicating a substantial improvement in their operational efficiency during that year. Despite these fluctuations, Ambatovy has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while the company is aware of its emissions, it may not have formalised commitments to reduce them in line with industry standards or climate pledges. Overall, Ambatovy Joint-Venture's emissions data reflects a complex trajectory, with significant reductions in 2020 followed by increases in subsequent years. The company operates from its headquarters in Madagascar (MG) and continues to navigate the challenges of carbon emissions management within the mining and processing sector.
