In 2022, China FAW Group Co., Ltd. reported carbon emissions of approximately 6.1 kg CO2e per RMB 10,000 of output value. This figure reflects the company's commitment to monitoring its carbon footprint, although specific total emissions data for Scope 1, 2, and 3 are not disclosed. The previous year's data (2021) indicated emissions of about 6.8 kg CO2e per RMB 10,000 of output value, suggesting a slight improvement in emissions intensity. China FAW Group has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments, nor does it participate in recognised frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of disclosed reduction targets indicates a need for further development in their climate strategy. The emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation, and all reported figures are derived directly from China FAW Group's own disclosures. The company continues to focus on sustainable practices, but further transparency and commitment to reduction targets would enhance its climate action profile.
