GS E&C Corp's reported carbon emissions

In 2021, GS E&C Corp reported total carbon emissions of approximately 225.6 million tonnes CO2e globally, with Scope 1 emissions at about 46.3 million tonnes CO2e, Scope 2 emissions at around 65.8 million tonnes CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions reaching approximately 340.2 million tonnes CO2e. This marked an increase from 2020, when total emissions were about 207.7 million tonnes CO2e. The company's emissions data from previous years shows a trend of fluctuating emissions, with a peak in 2018 at approximately 291.2 million tonnes CO2e globally. Notably, in 2019, total emissions decreased to about 245 million tonnes CO2e, indicating some progress in managing their carbon footprint. Despite these figures, GS E&C Corp has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or climate pledges. This lack of formal commitments may reflect a broader industry context where many companies are still developing comprehensive strategies to address climate change and reduce emissions across all scopes.
