Evonik Chemicals Limited's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Evonik Industries AG

Evonik Chemicals Limited, headquartered in Great Britain, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. The company is a current subsidiary of Evonik Industries AG, which means any climate commitments or emissions data may be inherited from this parent organisation. Evonik Industries AG has established various climate initiatives, including Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) commitments, which are cascaded down to Evonik Chemicals Limited. However, specific reduction targets or achievements for Evonik Chemicals Limited are not detailed in the available data. As part of its corporate family, Evonik Chemicals Limited aligns with the broader sustainability goals set by Evonik Industries AG, which focuses on reducing greenhouse gas emissions across its operations. The lack of specific emissions data suggests that the company is in the process of developing or implementing its own climate strategies, but further details are not currently available. In summary, while Evonik Chemicals Limited does not provide specific emissions data or reduction targets, it is part of a larger corporate structure that is committed to addressing climate change through inherited initiatives from Evonik Industries AG.
