In 2023, Federchimica reported total carbon emissions of approximately 7,264,510 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 1,087,680 kg CO2e from Scope 2, resulting in a combined total of about 8,352,190 kg CO2e when considering location-based accounting. The emissions from Scope 1 primarily stem from stationary combustion, which accounted for about 7,032,440 kg CO2e, while mobile combustion contributed approximately 224,900 kg CO2e. In 2022, Federchimica's emissions were significantly higher, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 71,816,800 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at about 24,687,100 kg CO2e. The total emissions for that year, including Scope 3, reached approximately 80,193,500 kg CO2e, indicating a substantial carbon footprint across its operations. Despite these figures, Federchimica has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments. The organisation has not cascaded any data from a parent company or related organisation, indicating that its emissions data is independently reported. Overall, while Federchimica has made strides in tracking its emissions, the absence of defined reduction targets suggests a need for further commitment to climate action within the chemical industry context.
