Evolution Mining's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Evolution Mining reported total carbon emissions of approximately 622,132,000 kg CO2e, comprising 231,823,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 687,344,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. This represents a slight decrease from 2022, where total emissions were about 684,921,000 kg CO2e. The company has shown a trend of reducing its emissions intensity, achieving approximately 15 kg CO2e per tonne mined in 2023, down from 16 kg CO2e per tonne in 2022. Despite these reductions, Evolution Mining has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, indicating a lack of formal commitments to further decrease emissions. The absence of Scope 3 emissions data suggests that the company may not be fully accounting for all indirect emissions associated with its operations. Overall, while Evolution Mining has made progress in reducing its carbon footprint, the lack of defined targets may limit its long-term climate impact strategy.
