In 2023, Ceres Power, headquartered in Great Britain, reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,800,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 510,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 1,352,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, and 25,000 kg CO2e from limited Scope 3 emissions related to business travel. Comparatively, in 2022, the company recorded total emissions of about 1,600,000 kg CO2e, with 411,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 1,226,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 17,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3. This indicates a slight increase in emissions year-on-year. Ceres Power's emissions data for 2021 shows a total of 453,000 kg CO2e, with limited Scope 3 data available, specifically 12,000 kg CO2e from fuel and energy-related activities. The 2020 data reveals a significant total of approximately 21,950,000 kg CO2e, primarily driven by Scope 3 emissions, which accounted for about 20,721,000 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, Ceres Power has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. The company does not appear to have cascaded any emissions data from a parent organization, and their climate strategy remains unspecified. Overall, Ceres Power's emissions reflect their operational impact, and while they have made strides in reporting, further commitments and reduction strategies would enhance their climate action profile.
