Gigabyte Technology's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Gigabyte Technology reported total carbon emissions of approximately 5,801,682,440 kg CO2e, with significant contributions from Scope 3 emissions, which accounted for about 5,801,682,440 kg CO2e. Scope 1 emissions were approximately 832,860 kg CO2e, while Scope 2 emissions totalled around 26,606,400 kg CO2e. The company has shown a slight decrease in total emissions from 2022, where total emissions were about 6,625,600,330 kg CO2e, indicating a commitment to reducing its carbon footprint. Gigabyte's emissions profile highlights the predominance of Scope 3 emissions, particularly from the use of sold products, which alone contributed approximately 4,525,119,430 kg CO2e in 2023. This suggests that the company is aware of the broader impact of its products throughout their lifecycle. Despite the substantial emissions figures, there are currently no publicly disclosed reduction targets or initiatives from Gigabyte Technology aimed at mitigating these emissions. The absence of specific climate pledges or science-based targets indicates a potential area for improvement in their sustainability strategy. Overall, while Gigabyte Technology has made strides in tracking and reporting its emissions, the lack of defined reduction goals may hinder its ability to effectively address climate change challenges in the future.
