The absence of defined climate pledges or science-based targets suggests that while the company is tracking emissions, it may not yet have formalised commitments to significant reductions in line with industry standards. As a leading manufacturer in the battery industry, East Penn's emissions profile reflects the broader challenges faced by the sector in addressing climate change and transitioning towards more sustainable practices.
