In 2024, China Water Affairs reported total carbon emissions of approximately 388,333,000 kg CO2e, comprising 181,420,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 179,219,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 27,694,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. This data reflects their operations in China and highlights their significant carbon footprint. In the previous year, 2023, the company recorded total emissions of about 218,896,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 3,209,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 215,687,000 kg CO2e. The emissions for 2022 were approximately 299,550,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at 1,412,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 at 298,138,000 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, China Water Affairs has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. The company does not currently disclose any SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets or other formal climate pledges. Their emissions data is not cascaded from a parent company, indicating that the reported figures are solely from their own operations. Overall, while China Water Affairs has made strides in reporting their emissions, the absence of reduction targets suggests a need for enhanced climate action strategies to mitigate their environmental impact.
