Essential Properties's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Essential Properties Realty Trust, Inc. reported significant carbon emissions, with a total of approximately 32,000,000 kg CO2e attributed to Scope 2 emissions. This marks a substantial increase from the previous year, 2022, when the company recorded about 21,000 kg CO2e in Scope 2 emissions, while Scope 1 emissions remained at zero. Despite the increase in emissions, Essential Properties has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, indicating a lack of formal commitments to reduce their carbon footprint at this time. The absence of Scope 1 and Scope 3 emissions data suggests that the company may be focusing primarily on its operational electricity use, as reflected in the Scope 2 figures. As of now, there are no emissions data cascaded from a parent or related organization, and all reported figures are directly from Essential Properties Realty Trust, Inc. The company continues to operate within the context of the real estate investment trust (REIT) sector, where sustainability practices are increasingly becoming a focal point for investors and stakeholders.
