Egbin Power's reported carbon emissions
In 2019, Egbin Power reported significant carbon emissions totalling approximately 2,160,000,000 kg CO2e, all of which were classified under Scope 1 emissions. Notably, the company did not report any emissions under Scope 2 or Scope 3 categories, indicating a focus solely on direct emissions from their operations.

This lack of defined commitments may reflect a broader industry context where many power generation companies are increasingly pressured to enhance their sustainability practices and reduce their carbon footprints. As the energy sector evolves, Egbin Power's future climate commitments and strategies will be crucial in addressing the growing concerns surrounding carbon emissions and climate change.
