Ellisdon's reported carbon emissions

EllisDon Corporation, headquartered in Canada, has set ambitious climate commitments despite not having specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year. The company is committed to achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across its entire value chain by 2050. To support this goal, EllisDon has established near-term targets to reduce absolute greenhouse gas emissions by 42% by 2030, using 2021 as the baseline year. These targets encompass all scopes of emissions: Scope 1 (direct emissions from owned or controlled sources), Scope 2 (indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity, steam, heating, and cooling), and Scope 3 (all other indirect emissions that occur in a company’s value chain). EllisDon aims for a significant long-term reduction of 90% in absolute emissions across these scopes by 2050. The company's targets align with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and are consistent with the reductions required to limit global warming to 1.5°C. EllisDon's commitment reflects a proactive approach to addressing climate change within the construction and engineering sector.
