Cepsa's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Cepsa reported total carbon emissions of approximately 63,000,000,000 kg CO2e, with significant contributions from Scope 3 emissions, which accounted for about 58,000,000,000 kg CO2e. Specifically, the use of sold products was the largest contributor, emitting around 51,600,000,000 kg CO2e. The company's Scope 1 emissions were about 4,700,000,000 kg CO2e, while Scope 2 emissions totalled approximately 200,000,000 kg CO2e (market-based). Comparatively, in 2022, Cepsa's total emissions were about 62,200,000,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 3 emissions again dominating at approximately 62,200,000,000 kg CO2e. This indicates a slight reduction in total emissions from 2022 to 2023. Cepsa's emissions data is cascaded from its parent company, Moeve, which provides oversight and reporting standards. However, there are currently no specific reduction targets or climate pledges outlined in their commitments, indicating a potential area for future development in their sustainability strategy. Overall, Cepsa's emissions profile highlights the challenges faced by the energy sector in managing carbon outputs, particularly in Scope 3 emissions, which are often the most difficult to control.
