Downer Edi's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Downer EDI Limited reported total carbon emissions of approximately 2,760,897,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 339,179,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 39,404,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, and 2,003,730,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. The company has disclosed emissions data across all three scopes, highlighting its commitment to transparency in its environmental impact. Over the years, Downer has seen fluctuations in its emissions. For instance, in 2022, total emissions were about 2,325,441,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 337,945,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 47,352,000 kg CO2e. The company’s emissions peaked in 2020 at approximately 2,229,800,000 kg CO2e, indicating a trend of increasing emissions in recent years. Despite these figures, Downer EDI has faced challenges in establishing concrete reduction targets. The company previously had commitments to near-term and long-term reduction targets, but these have since been removed or expired. Currently, Downer has not committed to a net-zero target or a specific year for achieving such a goal. In summary, while Downer EDI Limited has made strides in reporting its carbon emissions, it currently lacks active reduction commitments, which may impact its long-term sustainability strategy in the construction and engineering sector.
