Bechtel, headquartered in the US, currently does not provide specific carbon emissions data for the most recent year, as indicated by the absence of reported figures. The company is a current subsidiary of Bechtel Global Corporation, which may influence its climate reporting and commitments. Despite the lack of specific emissions data, Bechtel is part of a broader corporate family that engages in various climate initiatives. The company does not have documented reduction targets or commitments under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other recognised frameworks. Additionally, there are no climate pledges or specific reduction initiatives reported. As a subsidiary, Bechtel may align its climate strategies with those of Bechtel Global Corporation, which is involved in sustainability efforts and may report emissions data through the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). However, without specific figures or targets, it is challenging to assess Bechtel's individual performance in carbon emissions reduction. In summary, while Bechtel is part of a larger corporate structure that may have climate commitments, it currently lacks publicly available emissions data and specific reduction targets.
