In 2023, BEC reported total carbon emissions of approximately 208,010 kg CO2e in Hong Kong, with a breakdown of 35,100 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 163,310 kg CO2e from Scope 2 (purchased electricity), and 9,600 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions, primarily from waste generated in operations. This represents a significant commitment to transparency in emissions reporting, as all three scopes of emissions are disclosed. Comparatively, in 2022, BEC's emissions in Hong Kong were about 158,160 kg CO2e, indicating an increase in emissions year-on-year. The 2022 global emissions data shows BEC's total emissions at approximately 15,659,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at 50,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at 1,912,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at 15,659,000 kg CO2e. Despite the detailed emissions reporting, BEC has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives, nor do they have any climate pledges or SBTi targets in place. The absence of reduction commitments suggests a need for further action in aligning with industry standards for climate accountability. Overall, BEC's emissions data reflects a growing awareness of carbon footprints, but the lack of defined reduction strategies highlights an area for potential improvement in their climate commitments.
