This data reflects a comprehensive approach to emissions reporting, as all three scopes are disclosed. Comparatively, in 2023, the company recorded total emissions of approximately 218.9 million kg CO2e, indicating a significant increase in emissions year-on-year. The breakdown for 2023 shows 3.2 million kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 215.7 million kg CO2e from Scope 2, with no Scope 3 data reported. Despite the increase in emissions, China Water Affairs has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or commitments to frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The company operates under the umbrella of China Water Affairs Group Limited, which may influence its emissions profile and reporting practices. Overall, while China Water Affairs has made strides in emissions disclosure, the lack of reduction commitments highlights an area for potential improvement in their climate strategy.
