Arq's reported carbon emissions
In 2024, Arq, headquartered in the US, reported total carbon emissions of approximately 5,062,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 2,962,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2. This brings their combined Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions to around 8,024,000 kg CO2e. In the previous year, 2023, their global emissions were approximately 4,392,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 4,142,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, totalling around 8,535,000 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, Arq has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. There are no emissions reported for Scope 3, indicating a potential area for future focus. The absence of cascading data from a parent company suggests that Arq's emissions data is independently reported. Overall, while Arq has made strides in tracking their emissions, the lack of defined reduction targets highlights an opportunity for enhanced climate action and commitment to sustainability.
