Grupo Alimerka's reported carbon emissions
In 2022, Grupo Alimerka reported carbon emissions of approximately 11,294,400 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and no emissions from Scope 2, indicating a focus on direct emissions management. The company has also disclosed emissions data for previous years, with 2021 emissions at about 12,366,450 kg CO2e (Scope 1) and 77,751,000 kg CO2e (Scope 3), while 2020 emissions were approximately 14,034,520 kg CO2e (Scope 1) and 63,717,000 kg CO2e (Scope 3). Despite these figures, Grupo Alimerka has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, which may limit their ability to demonstrate a proactive approach to climate change mitigation. The absence of Scope 2 emissions in 2020 and 2021 suggests a potential shift in energy sourcing or reporting practices. Overall, while Grupo Alimerka has made strides in managing its direct emissions, the lack of comprehensive reduction initiatives or targets may hinder its long-term sustainability goals.
