Cimento Apodi's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Cimento Apodi reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,724,000,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 89,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 5,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, and a significant 1,630,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. The Scope 3 emissions breakdown reveals substantial contributions from upstream transportation and distribution (96,000,000 kg CO2e), fuel and energy-related activities (750,000,000 kg CO2e), and purchased goods and services (166,000,000 kg CO2e). Comparatively, in 2022, the company emitted approximately 86,000,000 kg CO2e in Scope 1 and 2 combined, with no reported Scope 3 emissions. In 2021, the emissions were about 98,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 1,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, again with no Scope 3 data disclosed. Cimento Apodi has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, nor does it appear to have cascaded any emissions data from a parent company. The absence of documented reduction initiatives suggests a need for enhanced climate commitments within the industry context. The company’s emissions data reflects its operational impact and highlights the importance of addressing both direct and indirect emissions in the cement sector.
