Gigabyte Technology's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Gigabyte Technology reported total carbon emissions of approximately 27,439,260 kg CO2e, comprising 832,860 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 26,606,400 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. The company also disclosed significant Scope 3 emissions, amounting to about 5,801,682,440 kg CO2e, which includes emissions from the use of sold products and other upstream and downstream activities. Despite these figures, Gigabyte has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. The absence of documented reduction strategies suggests a need for enhanced focus on sustainability practices within the organisation. As a leading player in the technology sector, Gigabyte's emissions profile reflects the broader industry challenges in managing carbon footprints, particularly in relation to Scope 3 emissions, which often constitute the majority of total emissions for technology companies. Overall, while Gigabyte Technology has made strides in reporting its emissions, the lack of defined reduction targets indicates an opportunity for the company to strengthen its climate commitments and align with industry best practices.
