Dongfang Electric's reported carbon emissions

In 2021, Dongfang Electric, headquartered in China (CN), reported emissions data that is not specified in absolute terms. However, the company has disclosed greenhouse gas emissions density of approximately 5.1 kg CO2e per CNY of revenue. This figure reflects the company's operational efficiency in relation to its financial performance, although specific total emissions figures for Scope 1, 2, and 3 are not available. The company has not set any publicly disclosed reduction targets or climate pledges, indicating a lack of formal commitments to reduce carbon emissions at this time. Additionally, there are no emissions data cascaded from its parent company, Dongfang Electric Corporation Limited, that would provide further insights into its climate performance. Overall, while Dongfang Electric is engaged in monitoring its emissions, the absence of specific reduction initiatives or targets suggests that it may be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy.
