In 2023, Finning reported total carbon emissions of approximately 44,412,228,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 3,951,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which encompass direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, and 166,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, related to purchased electricity. Notably, Scope 3 emissions accounted for a significant portion, totalling about 44,408,111,000 kg CO2e, primarily driven by business travel and downstream leased assets. In comparison, the previous year, 2022, saw total emissions of approximately 75,721,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 52,431,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at about 23,290,000 kg CO2e. This indicates a substantial increase in emissions in 2023, primarily due to the large Scope 3 figures. Finning has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The company’s emissions data is sourced from Finning International Inc., reflecting its global operations without cascading from a parent company. Overall, while Finning has made strides in reporting its emissions across all scopes, the lack of defined reduction targets highlights an area for potential improvement in its climate commitments.
