Ellucian Company L.P.'s reported carbon emissions
In 2022, Ellucian Company L.P. reported total carbon emissions of approximately 5,533,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 3,937,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which are direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, and 1,417,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, representing indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity, steam, heating, and cooling. Notably, the total Scope 3 emissions also amounted to 5,533,000 kg CO2e, indicating significant indirect emissions associated with the company's value chain. Comparatively, in 2021, Ellucian's total emissions were about 4,962,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 2,982,800 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 2,084,100 kg CO2e. This reflects an increase in total emissions from 2021 to 2022, highlighting the challenges in reducing carbon footprints in a growing operational context. Ellucian has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives, such as those aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while the company is aware of its emissions, it may not yet have formalised commitments to reduce them. It is important to note that the emissions data reported by Ellucian Company L.P. is cascaded from its corporate family, with the source organisation being Ellucian Company L.P. itself. This indicates that the data reflects the company's own emissions performance without external influence from parent or related organisations. Overall, while Ellucian has made strides in tracking its emissions, the lack of specific reduction targets indicates an area for potential growth in its climate commitments.
