In 2023, DongFang Electric Corporation, headquartered in China (CN), reported greenhouse gas emissions data that is not specified in absolute terms. However, the company has disclosed its greenhouse gas emission density, which stands at approximately 0.00000045 kg CO2e per unit of revenue (CNY) for the year. This figure reflects the company's emissions relative to its revenue of about USD 9.23 billion. For the previous years, the emission densities were approximately 0.000005 kg CO2e per unit of revenue in 2022 and about 0.0000051 kg CO2e per unit of revenue in 2021, with revenues of approximately USD 8.43 billion and USD 7.59 billion, respectively. This indicates a slight improvement in emissions intensity over the years, although specific total emissions figures for Scope 1, 2, and 3 are not disclosed. Currently, DongFang Electric Corporation has not set any formal reduction targets or climate pledges, nor does it participate in initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of disclosed reduction initiatives suggests that the company may be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. Overall, while DongFang Electric Corporation has shown some progress in reducing emissions intensity, the lack of specific emissions data and formal commitments highlights an area for potential improvement in its climate strategy.
Climate goals typically focus on 2030 interim targets and 2050 net-zero commitments, aligned with global frameworks like the Paris Agreement and Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) to ensure alignment with global climate goals.
DongFang Electric Corporation has not publicly committed to specific 2030 or 2050 climate goals through the major frameworks we track. Companies often set interim 2030 targets and long-term 2050 net-zero goals to demonstrate measurable progress toward decarbonization.
