Beijing Capital International Airport's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Beijing Capital International Airport reported total carbon emissions of approximately 224,984,700 kg CO2e. This figure includes about 733,100 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which encompass direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, and about 224,251,590 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, representing indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity, steam, heating, and cooling. Comparatively, in 2022, the airport's total emissions were about 336,281,890 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 776,880 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at around 335,505,010 kg CO2e. This indicates a significant reduction in total emissions from 2022 to 2023. Despite these reductions, there are currently no disclosed targets for further emissions reductions or specific climate pledges from the airport. The absence of Scope 3 emissions data suggests a limited understanding of the full carbon footprint associated with the airport's operations. Overall, while there have been notable reductions in emissions, the airport's climate commitments and future reduction strategies remain unclear.
