Echelon Corporation, headquartered in the US, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. The company is a current subsidiary of Renesas Electronics Corporation, which influences its climate commitments and reporting practices. Echelon's climate initiatives and reduction targets are inherited from Renesas Electronics Corporation, which operates at a cascade level of three. However, specific reduction targets or achievements from Renesas have not been detailed in the provided information. As a subsidiary, Echelon Corporation aligns its climate strategies with those of Renesas, which may include participation in initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). Nonetheless, without explicit data or targets from Echelon itself, the specifics of its carbon emissions and climate commitments remain unclear. In summary, while Echelon Corporation is part of a larger corporate family with potential climate commitments, it currently lacks publicly available emissions data and defined reduction targets.
