Carclo plc's reported carbon emissions

In 2015, Carclo plc reported total carbon emissions of approximately 20,165,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes about 2,073,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions and approximately 18,092,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. The company has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data. Comparatively, in 2014, Carclo's total emissions were about 16,618,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 1,345,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions around 15,273,000 kg CO2e. This indicates an increase in total emissions from 2014 to 2015. Despite the increase in emissions, Carclo plc has not set specific reduction targets or made formal climate pledges, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction initiatives or commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The company’s emissions intensity ratio was reported at approximately 0.000107503 tCO2e per £1 million of revenue in 2015, reflecting its operational efficiency in relation to revenue generation. Overall, while Carclo plc has made strides in emissions reporting, it currently lacks defined climate commitments or reduction targets to address its carbon footprint effectively.
