Dongfang Electric's reported carbon emissions

In 2021, Dongfang Electric, headquartered in China (CN), reported emissions data indicating a greenhouse gas emissions 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 terms of Scope 1, 2, or 3, as no detailed emissions data has been disclosed for these scopes. The company has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, and there are no reported initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate frameworks. Emissions data is cascaded from its parent company, Dongfang Electric Corporation Limited, which may provide broader context for its environmental performance. Overall, while Dongfang Electric has demonstrated awareness of its emissions through the reporting of density metrics, it currently lacks comprehensive emissions data and formal commitments to reduction targets.
