In 2023, Enbridge reported total carbon emissions of approximately 874,160,000,000 kg CO2e globally, with emissions distributed across various scopes: 7,480,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 7,148,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 54,634,100,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3. Notably, the Scope 3 emissions included significant contributions from the use of sold products, amounting to about 805,100,000,000 kg CO2e. In previous years, Enbridge's emissions have shown variability. For instance, in 2022, the company emitted approximately 77,150,000 kg CO2e (Scope 1), 6,693,000,000 kg CO2e (Scope 2), and 55,913,900,000 kg CO2e (Scope 3). The trend indicates a substantial reliance on fossil fuels, particularly in their operations. Despite the high emissions figures, there are currently no publicly disclosed reduction targets or initiatives from Enbridge aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. This lack of specific commitments may reflect broader industry challenges in addressing climate change effectively. Enbridge's climate strategy appears to be in development, as they navigate the complexities of emissions reduction within the energy sector.
