CITIC Group Corporation's reported carbon emissions

In 2022, CITIC Group Corporation reported total carbon emissions of approximately 13,015,450 kg CO2e from both Scope 1 and Scope 2 sources. This figure reflects the company's direct emissions from owned or controlled sources (Scope 1) and indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity, steam, heating, and cooling (Scope 2), each contributing equally to the total emissions. Currently, CITIC Group has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing its carbon footprint. The absence of defined climate commitments or science-based targets suggests that the company may be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. As the global focus on sustainability intensifies, it will be crucial for CITIC Group to establish clear goals to align with industry standards and expectations for climate action.
