Bechtel Group, Inc.'s reported carbon emissions
As of the latest available data, Bechtel Group, Inc. reported carbon emissions for the year 2016, totalling approximately 16,700,000 kg CO2e. This figure comprises 1,045,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions and 15,525,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. The company has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data. Bechtel has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments, nor does it appear to participate in initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or similar climate pledges. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that the company may be in the early stages of formalising its climate strategy. Overall, while Bechtel Group, Inc. has reported significant emissions, it currently lacks a structured approach to emissions reduction or climate commitments, which is increasingly becoming a standard expectation within the industry.
