In 2021, Amec reported total carbon emissions of approximately 16,732,160 kg CO2e, encompassing Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions. This data is specific to their operations in China (CN). The company has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions for this year. Historically, Amec's emissions data shows a trend of significant emissions across all scopes. For instance, in 2009, the company reported Scope 1 emissions of about 8,945,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of approximately 23,722,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions of around 17,178,000 kg CO2e. This indicates a substantial carbon footprint, particularly in Scope 2, which often reflects energy consumption. Despite the emissions data, Amec has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. There are no documented SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets or climate pledges available, suggesting a lack of formalised strategies for emissions reduction at this time. The emissions data for Amec is not cascaded from any parent organisation, and all figures are derived directly from their own reporting. The company is associated with Advanced Micro-Fabrication Equipment Inc. China, which may influence their operational practices but does not affect the emissions data reported. Overall, while Amec has made strides in reporting their emissions, the absence of reduction targets highlights an area for potential improvement in their climate strategy.
