Grupo Alimerka's reported carbon emissions
As of 2022, Grupo Alimerka reported carbon emissions of approximately 11,294,400 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and no emissions for Scope 2. However, data for Scope 3 emissions is not available for this year. In previous years, the company has shown a trend of decreasing emissions in Scope 1, from about 15,182,000 kg CO2e in 2018 to 11,294,400 kg CO2e in 2022. In 2019, Grupo Alimerka's emissions were approximately 13,320,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 24,273,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 56,251,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3. The 2020 data indicated a significant increase in Scope 3 emissions, reaching about 63,717,000 kg CO2e, while Scope 2 emissions were reported as zero. Despite these figures, there are currently no specific reduction targets or climate pledges disclosed by Grupo Alimerka. The company’s commitment to reducing its carbon footprint remains unclear, as no formal initiatives or targets have been documented. Overall, while there is a notable reduction in Scope 1 emissions over the years, the lack of comprehensive climate commitments and targets suggests an area for potential improvement in their sustainability strategy.
