In 2023, EPCOR Utilities Inc. reported total carbon emissions of approximately 191,245,000 kg CO2e, with all emissions classified under Scope 1, which includes direct emissions from owned or controlled sources. The company also reported Scope 2 emissions, which were equal to the total emissions, indicating a potential overlap in reporting or a focus on specific operational areas. Comparatively, emissions in 2022 were about 193,072,000 kg CO2e, and in 2021, they were approximately 203,626,000 kg CO2e. This shows a slight reduction in emissions over the years, with a decrease of about 1% from 2022 to 2023 and about 6% from 2021 to 2022. EPCOR has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives through the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges, indicating a potential area for future commitment. The company’s emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organization, and all reported figures are derived directly from EPCOR Utilities Inc. Overall, while EPCOR has shown a trend of decreasing emissions, the absence of formal reduction targets suggests that further strategic commitments may be necessary to enhance their climate action efforts.
