China Hongqiao's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, China Hongqiao reported total carbon emissions of approximately 73,760,000,000 kg CO2e, comprising 56,210,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 17,550,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. This represents a slight decrease in total emissions compared to 2022, where emissions were about 78,750,000,000 kg CO2e. The company has shown a consistent commitment to monitoring and reporting its emissions, with disclosed data for both Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions from 2020 to 2023. However, there are currently no specific reduction targets or climate pledges outlined in their reports. China Hongqiao's emissions intensity has varied, with a reported intensity of approximately 34.5 kg CO2e per tonne of production capacity in 2023. The company continues to focus on energy consumption efficiency, which is critical in the aluminium industry, known for its high energy demands and associated greenhouse gas emissions. Overall, while China Hongqiao has made strides in emissions reporting, further commitments to reduction targets would enhance its climate strategy and align with global sustainability goals.

Reduction initiatives & disclosure networks

Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.

China Hongqiao is not committed to any reduction initiatives we track. This may change over time as the company engages with new initiatives or updates its commitments. DitchCarbon will update this information as it becomes available.
