Citgo's reported carbon emissions
In 2022, CITGO Petroleum Corporation reported approximately 24,200,000 kg CO2e in Scope 1 emissions, reflecting its operational greenhouse gas output. This figure is part of a broader trend, as the company has seen a decrease in emissions from previous years, with Scope 1 emissions recorded at about 7,300,000,000 kg CO2e in 2021, 6,600,000,000 kg CO2e in 2020, and 8,200,000,000 kg CO2e in 2019. The emissions data is cascaded from CITGO Petroleum Corporation, which is the parent company. CITGO has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while the company is aware of its emissions, it has yet to establish formalised goals for reducing its carbon footprint. Overall, CITGO's emissions data indicates a significant operational impact, and the lack of specific climate pledges or reduction initiatives highlights an area for potential improvement in its environmental strategy.
