Gevo's reported carbon emissions
In 2022, Gevo, headquartered in the US, reported no specific carbon emissions data, including Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions. The company focuses on sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) production, with a carbon intensity of approximately 0.04 gCO2e/MJ for SAF and about 0.089 gCO2e/MJ for fossil jet fuel, indicating a commitment to lower carbon alternatives. Gevo has not disclosed any reduction targets or initiatives through the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges, suggesting a need for clearer commitments in this area. The absence of cascaded emissions data from a parent company indicates that Gevo operates independently regarding its emissions reporting. Overall, while Gevo is engaged in the production of lower-carbon fuels, the lack of detailed emissions data and reduction targets highlights an opportunity for the company to enhance its climate commitments and transparency.
