FortisAlberta's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, FortisAlberta reported total carbon emissions of approximately 10,957,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 4,788,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and a significant 9,938,550,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3 emissions. This data reflects a comprehensive approach to emissions reporting, covering all three scopes. Comparatively, in 2022, the company recorded 10,616,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 5,192,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 9,307,557,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3, indicating a slight increase in Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, while Scope 3 emissions also rose. FortisAlberta's emissions data is cascaded from its parent company, FortisAlberta Inc., which is a current subsidiary. However, there are no specific reduction targets or initiatives reported for the company at this time. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that FortisAlberta may be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. Overall, FortisAlberta's emissions profile highlights the significant impact of Scope 3 emissions, which typically encompass indirect emissions from the value chain, underscoring the need for targeted strategies to address these emissions in future climate commitments.
