China Merchants Port's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, China Merchants Port reported total carbon emissions of approximately 285,912,000 kg CO2e, comprising 62,802,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 223,110,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. Additionally, the company disclosed Scope 3 emissions of about 48,430 kg CO2e, primarily from business travel. The emissions data from previous years shows a significant increase, with total emissions rising from approximately 118,068,900 kg CO2e in 2019 to 290,367,000 kg CO2e in 2022. This upward trend highlights the growing environmental impact of the organisation, despite its efforts to manage emissions. China Merchants Port has not set specific reduction targets or made formal climate pledges, indicating a potential area for improvement in their sustainability strategy. The absence of Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) reduction targets further underscores the need for a more structured approach to emissions reduction. Overall, while the company has made strides in emissions reporting, the lack of clear reduction commitments may hinder its ability to effectively address climate change challenges in the logistics and shipping industry.
