China Unicom Hong Kong's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, China Unicom Hong Kong reported total carbon emissions of approximately 13,250,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes about 100,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions and approximately 13,150,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. Over the past five years, the company has demonstrated a commitment to reducing its carbon footprint, with total emissions fluctuating from about 13,130,000 kg CO2e in 2018 to a peak of approximately 14,200,000 kg CO2e in 2020, before decreasing to the current level. China Unicom has disclosed emissions data primarily for Scope 1 and Scope 2, indicating a focus on direct and indirect emissions associated with its operations. However, there are no specific reduction targets or initiatives outlined in their recent reports, suggesting a need for clearer commitments to climate action. The company’s emissions intensity has shown variability, with a notable decrease in carbon emission intensity per unit of revenue from 0.04513 in 2018 to 0.0395 in 2021. This trend reflects an effort to improve efficiency, although comprehensive reduction targets have not been established. Overall, while China Unicom Hong Kong has made strides in tracking and reporting its emissions, the absence of defined reduction targets highlights an opportunity for further commitment to climate sustainability.
