In 2023, Generac Power Systems, Inc. reported total carbon emissions of approximately 18,131,070 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at about 34,280,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at around 26,534,000 kg CO2e. The company's emissions have fluctuated over recent years, with a total of approximately 12,991,390 kg CO2e in 2022, 32,040,000 kg CO2e in 2021, and 46,575,000 kg CO2e in 2019. Generac has disclosed emissions across Scopes 1 and 2, but there is no available data on specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while the company is aware of its emissions, it may not have formalised commitments to reduce them in line with industry standards or frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Overall, Generac's emissions profile indicates a significant reliance on energy-intensive processes, particularly in Scope 1 and 2 categories, which highlights the need for strategic climate commitments to mitigate their environmental impact.
