China Coal Energy's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, China Coal Energy reported total carbon emissions of approximately 37,120,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 9,780,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, resulting in a combined total of about 46,900,000,000 kg CO2e. This marks a slight decrease from 2022, where emissions were approximately 36,470,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 9,860,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, leading to a total of about 46,330,000,000 kg CO2e. In 2021, the company reported emissions of approximately 39,000,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 9,830,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, resulting in a total of about 48,830,000,000 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, China Coal Energy has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or climate pledges, indicating a lack of formal commitments to reduce emissions in line with global climate goals. The company operates in a sector that is under increasing scrutiny for its environmental impact, and the absence of defined reduction initiatives may affect its long-term sustainability and compliance with emerging regulatory frameworks.
