In 2024, Greaves Cotton reported total carbon emissions of approximately 9,539,900 kg CO2e, comprising 1,356,970 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 8,182,930 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. This marks a significant increase from 2023, where the total emissions were about 6,941,810 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 126,300 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 6,815,510 kg CO2e. In 2022, the company recorded total emissions of approximately 4,967,600 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions of 117,850 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions of 4,890,550 kg CO2e. Despite the increase in emissions, Greaves Cotton has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. The company does not appear to have cascaded any emissions data from a parent organisation, and all reported figures are directly from Greaves Cotton Limited. As of now, Greaves Cotton's climate strategy lacks defined targets under frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other recognised climate pledges. The absence of such commitments highlights an opportunity for the company to enhance its sustainability efforts and align with industry standards for carbon reduction.
