Cross Sound Cable's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Cross Sound Cable reported carbon emissions of approximately 13,264,000 kg CO2e, all of which fall under Scope 2 emissions, indicating indirect emissions from purchased electricity. This represents a significant decrease from 2021, when emissions peaked at about 18,706,000 kg CO2e. The company has shown a downward trend in emissions over the years, with 2022 emissions recorded at approximately 17,922,000 kg CO2e. Despite these reductions, Cross Sound Cable has not established specific reduction targets or climate pledges, which may limit their long-term climate strategy. The absence of Scope 1 emissions suggests that the company does not have direct emissions from owned or controlled sources. Overall, while Cross Sound Cable is making progress in reducing its carbon footprint, further commitments and targets could enhance its climate action efforts.
