Assore Limited's reported carbon emissions

In 2021, Assore Limited reported total carbon emissions of approximately 995,788,000 kg CO2e, comprising 203,017,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 792,771,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. This data reflects a slight decrease from 2020, where total emissions were about 1,016,305,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 198,193,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 818,112,000 kg CO2e. Assore Limited has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data for 2021, but in 2019, they reported approximately 82,789,000 kg CO2e in Scope 3 emissions, alongside 1,248,696,000 kg CO2e in Scope 1 and 372,600,000 kg CO2e in Scope 2. Despite the significant emissions figures, Assore Limited has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. The company is a current subsidiary of a larger corporate family, and emissions data is cascaded from Assore Limited itself, with no additional climate initiatives reported from parent organisations. Overall, while Assore Limited has made strides in tracking and reporting emissions, further commitments and reduction strategies appear to be lacking at this time.
