Avocent Corporation's reported carbon emissions

Avocent Corporation, headquartered in the US, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data for the most recent year, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. The company is a current subsidiary of Vertiv Holdings Co, which may influence its climate-related initiatives and reporting. While Avocent has not set specific reduction targets or commitments under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), it is important to note that emissions data and climate strategies may be inherited from its parent company, Vertiv Holdings Co. This cascading of data suggests that Avocent's climate commitments could align with broader corporate sustainability goals set by Vertiv. As of now, Avocent has not publicly disclosed any significant reduction initiatives or climate pledges. The lack of specific emissions data and reduction targets highlights a potential area for improvement in transparency and accountability regarding their environmental impact.
