Dongfeng Motor's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Dongfeng Motor reported total greenhouse gas emissions of approximately 147,150,000 kg CO2e, comprising 32,820,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 114,330,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 147,150,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. This reflects a continued commitment to monitoring and managing their carbon footprint. Over the past few years, Dongfeng Motor has shown a trend in emissions management. In 2022, the company recorded total emissions of about 168,760,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 39,690,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 at 129,070,000 kg CO2e. The 2021 figures were similar, with total emissions of approximately 2,066,500,000 kg CO2e, including 49,490,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 157,160,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2. Despite these figures, Dongfeng Motor has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of defined reduction targets suggests a need for further commitment to climate action within the automotive industry context, where many companies are increasingly setting ambitious goals to reduce emissions and enhance sustainability practices. Overall, while Dongfeng Motor has made strides in emissions reporting, the lack of concrete reduction commitments highlights an area for potential growth in their climate strategy.
