In 2024, GenScript Biotech reported total carbon emissions of approximately 39,376,800 kg CO2e for Scope 1, about 114,034,820 kg CO2e for Scope 2 (market-based), and around 387,589,810 kg CO2e for Scope 3 emissions. The combined total for Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions (market-based) was approximately 153,411,610 kg CO2e. In 2023, the company recorded emissions of about 48,821,780 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 83,758,360 kg CO2e for Scope 2 (market-based), and approximately 314,658,760 kg CO2e for Scope 3, resulting in a total of about 132,580,140 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and Scope 2 combined (market-based). Despite these figures, GenScript Biotech has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or commitments to frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The company does not appear to inherit emissions data from a parent organisation, and all reported data is directly from GenScript Corporation. Overall, while GenScript Biotech has substantial emissions across all scopes, it currently lacks defined climate commitments or reduction strategies to address its carbon footprint.
