Core Lithium Ltd's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Core Lithium Ltd reported total carbon emissions of approximately 27,500,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 8,000,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of around 3,500,000 kg CO2e, and significant Scope 3 emissions totalling approximately 16,000,000 kg CO2e. The previous year, 2022, saw total emissions of about 25,620,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at approximately 7,620,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at around 3,000,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions at about 15,000,000 kg CO2e. Despite these emissions figures, Core Lithium Ltd has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or climate pledges. The company operates within the lithium mining sector, which is increasingly scrutinised for its environmental impact, particularly in relation to carbon emissions. As such, the absence of formal reduction initiatives may be a point of concern for stakeholders focused on sustainability. Core Lithium Ltd's emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation, indicating that the reported figures are solely from its own operations. The company continues to navigate the challenges of balancing production with environmental responsibilities in the context of global climate commitments.
