In 2023, Bayan Resources reported total carbon emissions of approximately 163,213 tonnes CO2e. This figure includes about 139,474 tonnes CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which are direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, and around 23,740 tonnes CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, representing indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity. Over the past few years, Bayan Resources has demonstrated a significant reduction in emissions. In 2022, the company emitted about 82,341 tonnes CO2e, which indicates a substantial increase in emissions in 2023. However, when looking back to 2020, emissions were approximately 2.73 million tonnes CO2e, showcasing a notable decrease in emissions over the years. Despite these reductions, there are currently no publicly stated reduction targets or commitments from Bayan Resources, such as those aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The company has not outlined specific initiatives aimed at further reducing its carbon footprint, which places it in a context where many industry peers are actively pursuing ambitious climate goals. Overall, while Bayan Resources has made strides in reducing its emissions, the lack of formal reduction targets may limit its long-term sustainability efforts in the face of increasing global climate commitments.
