Amec's reported carbon emissions

In 2021, Amec reported total carbon emissions of approximately 16,732,160 kg CO2e, encompassing both Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions. This figure reflects their operational impact within China (CN). The company has not disclosed specific Scope 3 emissions data for this year. Historically, Amec's emissions have shown a trend of reduction from 2006 to 2009, with significant decreases in both Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions. For instance, in 2006, their total emissions were about 15,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 20,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, while by 2009, these figures had dropped to approximately 8,945,000 kg CO2e and 23,722,000 kg CO2e, respectively. Despite these reductions, Amec has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges as part of their sustainability strategy. The absence of documented reduction initiatives suggests a need for further commitment to climate action within the industry context.
