In 2021, Dongfang Electric, headquartered in China (CN), reported emissions data inherited from its parent company, Dongfang Electric Corporation Limited. The company did not disclose specific absolute emissions figures for Scope 1, 2, or 3, nor did it provide detailed emissions data for previous years. However, it did report greenhouse gas emissions density of approximately 5.1 kg CO2e per CNY of revenue for 2021, which reflects its operational efficiency in relation to revenue generation. Dongfang Electric has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, and there are no documented initiatives aimed at reducing carbon emissions. The absence of disclosed emissions data and reduction commitments suggests that the company may be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. As a current subsidiary of Dongfang Electric Corporation Limited, any climate-related initiatives or targets would likely be influenced by the parent company's policies and commitments. However, no specific initiatives or targets have been reported at this time.
Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.
Dongfang Electric is not participating in any of the initiatives that we track. This may change over time as the company engages with new initiatives or updates its commitments. DitchCarbon will update this information as it becomes available.
