In 2023, Coquecol reported total carbon emissions of approximately 534,818,710 kg CO2e. This figure includes 160,858,690 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which are direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, and 1,064,070 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, representing indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity. The majority of their emissions, about 372,895,950 kg CO2e, fall under Scope 3, which encompasses all other indirect emissions that occur in the value chain. Comparatively, in 2022, Coquecol's total emissions were about 562,067,160 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 276,380,350 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at 1,238,820 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at 284,447,900 kg CO2e. This indicates a reduction in total emissions of approximately 27,248,450 kg CO2e from 2022 to 2023. In 2021, the company reported total emissions of around 725,256,510 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 449,931,080 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at 1,520,960 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at 273,804,470 kg CO2e. This shows a significant decrease in emissions over the two-year period. Despite these reductions, Coquecol has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, nor do they have any initiatives reported under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate frameworks. The emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation, indicating that these figures are solely attributed to Coquecol S.A. Overall, while Coquecol has made strides in reducing its carbon footprint, the absence of formal reduction commitments suggests an opportunity for further climate action and accountability.
