Grindwell Norton's reported carbon emissions

In 2024, Grindwell Norton reported total carbon emissions of approximately 30,205,000 kg CO2e, comprising about 26,565,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and about 43,719,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. This reflects a slight increase in emissions compared to 2023, where total emissions were about 29,930,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 24,630,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at about 40,697,000 kg CO2e. The company has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data, indicating a focus on direct and indirect emissions from its operations and energy use. Notably, Grindwell Norton has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, which may limit its commitment to long-term sustainability goals. In the Indian context, the 2023 emissions data shows Scope 1 emissions at approximately 26,565,000 kg CO2e, consistent with the global figures. The absence of significant reduction initiatives or targets suggests that Grindwell Norton is currently in the early stages of formalising its climate commitments. Overall, while Grindwell Norton has made strides in tracking its emissions, the lack of reduction targets and comprehensive climate strategies may hinder its ability to effectively address climate change challenges in the future.
