In 2022, DNOW reported total carbon emissions of approximately 27,139,000 kg CO2e, a decrease from about 30,554,000 kg CO2e in 2021 and 34,819,000 kg CO2e in 2020. The emissions data for 2022 includes 7,896,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, which pertains to purchased electricity. Notably, DNOW does not disclose any Scope 1 or Scope 3 emissions data. Despite the reductions in total emissions over the past three years, DNOW has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives, nor does it participate in recognised climate pledges such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of formal commitments indicates a potential area for growth in their climate strategy. Overall, DNOW's emissions data reflects a positive trend in reducing carbon output, but the lack of structured reduction targets suggests that further action may be necessary to enhance their climate commitments.
