In 2023, China Nonferrous Mining reported total carbon emissions of approximately 281,061.8 tonnes CO2e. This figure includes about 278,368.3 tonnes CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which are direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, and around 2,693.5 tonnes CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, representing indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity, steam, heating, and cooling. Over the past five years, the company has seen fluctuations in its emissions. In 2022, total emissions were about 266,544.7 tonnes CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 223,758.7 tonnes CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 2,796.0 tonnes CO2e. The trend indicates a gradual increase in emissions, with 2021 reporting 207,635.2 tonnes CO2e and 2020 at 178,534.7 tonnes CO2e. Despite these figures, there are currently no publicly stated reduction targets or climate pledges from China Nonferrous Mining. The absence of specific commitments suggests a need for enhanced climate strategies within the industry context, particularly as global pressures for emissions reductions intensify. The company’s emissions intensity, measured in relation to revenue, has varied, indicating potential areas for improvement in operational efficiency and sustainability practices.
