Foster Fuels's reported carbon emissions
In 2020, Foster Fuels reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1026000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 51293000 kg CO2e for Scope 2. Additionally, their Scope 3 emissions were significant, with contributions from various categories, including 186672000 kg CO2e from purchased goods and services and 155887000 kg CO2e from the use of sold products. Over the years, Foster Fuels has shown a trend of decreasing emissions, particularly in Scope 1 and Scope 2. For instance, in 2019, Scope 1 emissions were about 1290000 kg CO2e, while Scope 2 emissions were approximately 58457000 kg CO2e. This indicates a commitment to reducing their carbon footprint. However, there are currently no specific reduction targets or climate pledges documented, which suggests that while Foster Fuels is actively monitoring and reporting its emissions, it may not have formalised reduction initiatives or commitments in line with industry standards such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Overall, Foster Fuels is making strides in emissions reporting, but further clarity on their long-term climate commitments would enhance their sustainability profile.
