EWEC's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Abu Dhabi Power Corporation

As of the latest available data, EWEC does not report specific carbon emissions figures, indicating a lack of detailed emissions data for the most recent year. The organisation is a current subsidiary of Emirates Water and Electricity Company PJSC, which may influence its climate commitments and reporting practices. EWEC has not outlined any specific reduction targets or initiatives in its climate strategy. This absence of defined goals suggests that the organisation may still be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive approach to carbon management and sustainability. Given the context of the industry, it is essential for EWEC to establish clear climate commitments and reduction targets to align with global standards and expectations. As a subsidiary, it may benefit from the broader sustainability initiatives and frameworks established by its parent company, Emirates Water and Electricity Company PJSC. In summary, while EWEC currently lacks specific emissions data and reduction targets, its affiliation with Emirates Water and Electricity Company PJSC may provide a pathway for future climate action and reporting.
