China Everbright's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, China Everbright reported total carbon emissions of approximately 15,644,043,000 kg CO2e, with emissions distributed across various scopes: 14,800,577,000 kg CO2e (Scope 1), 519,563,000 kg CO2e (Scope 2), and 323,903,000 kg CO2e (Scope 3). This marked a continuation of their emissions profile, as similar figures were reported in 2021 and 2022, indicating a stable emission level without significant reductions. The company has disclosed emissions data across all three scopes, demonstrating transparency in their reporting. However, there are currently no specific reduction targets or initiatives outlined in their commitments, which suggests a potential area for improvement in their climate strategy. China Everbright's headquarters is located in Hong Kong, and while they have not set formal reduction targets, their emissions intensity metrics indicate ongoing efforts to manage their carbon footprint. The GHG emissions intensity for electricity supplied was reported at 0.0007 kg CO2e/kWh in 2023, reflecting their commitment to sustainability in energy consumption. Overall, while China Everbright has made strides in emissions reporting, the absence of defined reduction targets may limit their effectiveness in addressing climate change challenges.
