In 2023, EM Microelectronic reported total carbon emissions of approximately 30,765,000 kg CO2e, with emissions distributed across various scopes: 2,056,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 263,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and about 30,765,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3. This represents a significant portion of their overall emissions, with Scope 3 emissions primarily arising from purchased goods and services, which accounted for approximately 28,012,000 kg CO2e. Over the years, EM Microelectronic has made notable progress in reducing its emissions. From 2019 to 2023, Scope 1 emissions decreased from about 2,777,000 kg CO2e to 2,056,000 kg CO2e, while Scope 2 emissions also saw a reduction from approximately 4,622,000 kg CO2e to 263,000 kg CO2e. However, Scope 3 emissions increased from about 23,334,000 kg CO2e in 2019 to 30,765,000 kg CO2e in 2023, indicating a need for further focus on upstream and downstream activities. Despite these reductions, EM Microelectronic has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or commitments under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The company continues to monitor and report its emissions, reflecting a commitment to transparency in its climate impact.
