Bralirwa Brewery's reported carbon emissions

Bralirwa Brewery, headquartered in Rwanda, has reported its carbon emissions data for the years 2008 to 2015. The most recent data indicates that in 2015, the brewery emitted approximately 9,600 kg CO2e across all scopes (Scope 1, 2, and 3). This reflects a reduction from 11,900 kg CO2e in 2008, showcasing a downward trend in emissions over the years. The emissions breakdown for 2015 shows that Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions were all equal at 9,600 kg CO2e. Notably, the brewery achieved its lowest emissions in 2011, with a total of 8,100 kg CO2e, indicating a significant improvement in its carbon footprint during that period. Despite these reductions, Bralirwa Brewery has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while the brewery has made progress in reducing emissions, it may benefit from establishing formal commitments to further enhance its climate strategy.
