China Light And Power

China Light and Power (CLP), headquartered in Hong Kong and operating in the electricity sector, has reported its carbon emissions for recent years, with the latest data available for 2025. In 2025, CLP's total emissions were approximately 45.78 billion kg CO2e. This figure is comprised of substantial Scope 1 emissions, estimated at about 34.36 billion kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions contributing approximately 11.13 billion kg CO2e. Scope 2 emissions were considerably lower, at around 302 million kg CO2e.

Looking at historical data, CLP's total emissions in 2024 were approximately 50.69 billion kg CO2e, a decrease from approximately 52.99 billion kg CO2e in 2023. In 2022, total emissions stood at approximately 60.22 billion kg CO2e, and in 2021, they were around 65.02 billion kg CO2e. This trend indicates a reduction in overall emissions in recent years.

CLP has established several climate commitments and reduction targets. The company is committed to progressively phasing out coal-fired generation plants, with a long-term goal aligned with net-zero emissions by 2050. CLP also aims to reduce its Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions to near zero by 2025. Furthermore, CLP targets a 30% reduction in its Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions from 2020 levels by 2030, with a more ambitious target of a 50% reduction in both Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions from 2020 levels by 2030 also stated.

In alignment with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), CLP has committed to reducing its Scope 1, 2, and 3 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from electricity sold by 52% per kg CO2e/kWh by 2030, using a 2019 base year. This includes a commitment to reduce Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions from electricity generated by 50% per kg CO2e/kWh over the same period. Additionally, CLP aims to reduce absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions from the use of sold products by 28% by 2030, also from a 2019 base year. The company also has a commitment to achieve net-zero GHG emissions across its value chain by 2050.
