Banpu Power Public Company Limited's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Banpu Power Public Company Limited reported total carbon emissions of approximately 5,406,989,000 kg CO2e, comprising about 5,406,988,900 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions and about 6,954,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. The combined total for Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions reached approximately 5,413,943,000 kg CO2e. This represents a significant increase from 2022, where total emissions were about 3,570,856,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 3,567,119,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at about 3,737,000 kg CO2e. Banpu Power has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data, indicating a potential area for future reporting and improvement. The company has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges, which may limit its ability to demonstrate a commitment to reducing its carbon footprint. The emissions data is cascaded from Banpu Power Public Company Limited, which is a current subsidiary, and reflects the company's operational performance without inherited targets from a parent organization. The reported emissions intensity for electricity generation in 2023 was approximately 469 kg CO2e per MWh, a notable metric for assessing the environmental impact of their energy production. Overall, while Banpu Power has made strides in reporting its emissions, the absence of reduction targets and Scope 3 emissions data suggests that further commitments and transparency may be necessary to align with global climate goals.
