China Hongqiao's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, China Hongqiao reported total carbon emissions of approximately 56,210,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 17,550,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, resulting in combined emissions of around 73,760,000,000 kg CO2e. This marks an increase from 2022, where emissions were approximately 53,530,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 25,220,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, totalling about 78,750,000,000 kg CO2e. Over the past few years, the company has shown a trend of increasing emissions, with 2021 figures at approximately 51,390,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 27,310,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, leading to a total of about 78,700,000,000 kg CO2e. In 2020, emissions were around 50,030,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 26,080,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, totalling about 76,110,000,000 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, China Hongqiao has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. The absence of a climate pledge or SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets indicates a lack of formalised strategies for emissions reduction. The company continues to operate within the aluminium industry, which is known for its significant carbon footprint, highlighting the importance of effective climate strategies in this sector.
