Dongfang Electric's reported carbon emissions

In 2021, Dongfang Electric, headquartered in China (CN), reported emissions data indicating a greenhouse gas emission density of approximately 5.1 kg CO2e per CNY of revenue. This figure reflects the company's operational impact but does not specify total emissions in absolute terms, as no comprehensive emissions data (Scope 1, 2, or 3) has been disclosed. The company has not established any formal reduction targets or climate pledges, which suggests a lack of specific commitments towards reducing carbon emissions. This absence of defined goals may limit their ability to effectively address climate change and improve sustainability practices. In the context of the industry, Dongfang Electric operates in a sector increasingly scrutinised for its environmental impact. As global standards for emissions reporting and reduction become more stringent, the company may need to enhance its transparency and commitment to climate action to align with industry best practices.
