In 2023, Grange Resources reported total Scope 1 emissions of approximately 1,056,965,000 kg CO2e. This marks a significant increase from 2021, when the company recorded Scope 1 emissions of about 215,061,000 kg CO2e, alongside Scope 2 emissions of approximately 40,602,000 kg CO2e. The substantial rise in emissions over the two years indicates a shift in operational scale or production intensity. Grange Resources has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data, nor have they set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that the company may be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. The company’s production emissions are reported at about 0.12 tonnes CO2e per metric ton of pellet production, reflecting their operational efficiency in terms of emissions relative to output. However, without clear reduction commitments or initiatives, it remains to be seen how Grange Resources plans to address its carbon footprint moving forward. Overall, while Grange Resources has made strides in understanding its emissions profile, the lack of reduction targets and initiatives highlights an area for potential growth in their climate strategy.
