Bharat Heavy Electricals's reported carbon emissions

In 2024, Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL) reported total carbon emissions of approximately 111,681,130 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 174,844,570 kg CO2e for Scope 2. This marks a slight decrease from 2023, where emissions were about 115,744,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 176,528,460 kg CO2e for Scope 2. Over the years, BHEL has shown fluctuations in emissions, with 2021 figures at approximately 96,110,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 227,933,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, indicating a need for ongoing improvement in their carbon management strategies. BHEL has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data, which typically includes indirect emissions from the supply chain and product use. The company has not set specific reduction targets under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other formal climate pledges, indicating a potential area for future commitment. The emissions intensity per rupee of turnover has also been reported, with values of approximately 0.02744 for 2024 and 0.02862 for 2023, reflecting the company's efforts to align emissions with revenue generation. However, without formal reduction targets or commitments, BHEL's long-term climate strategy remains unclear. Overall, while BHEL has made strides in tracking and reporting emissions, the absence of specific reduction initiatives or targets suggests that further action is necessary to enhance their climate commitments and reduce their overall carbon footprint.
