In 2023, Green Mountain reported carbon emissions of approximately 563,060 kg CO2e, all of which fall under Scope 1, indicating direct emissions from owned or controlled sources. There were no reported emissions from Scope 2 or Scope 3, which typically encompass indirect emissions from purchased electricity and the entire value chain, respectively. Over the years, Green Mountain has shown a significant reduction in emissions. For instance, in 2015, total emissions were about 933,493,097 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 41,730,498 kg CO2e and Scope 3 emissions at about 891,762,599 kg CO2e. By 2021, total emissions had decreased dramatically to about 196,299 kg CO2e, reflecting a strong commitment to reducing their carbon footprint. Despite these achievements, there are currently no specific reduction targets or climate pledges documented, indicating a potential area for future commitment. Green Mountain's focus on sustainability is evident, but further initiatives could enhance their climate strategy and align with industry standards for emissions reduction.
