Guangdong Investment's reported carbon emissions

In 2022, Guangdong Investment reported significant carbon emissions, with Scope 1 emissions totalling approximately 2,656,068 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at about 98,800 kg CO2e. This marked a notable increase in Scope 1 emissions compared to previous years, reflecting the company's operational intensity. From 2020 to 2021, the company achieved a reduction in Scope 1 emissions from approximately 4,828,750 kg CO2e to about 4,171,470 kg CO2e, indicating a commitment to lowering its direct emissions. However, the 2022 figures suggest a reversal in this trend, necessitating further scrutiny of their emissions management strategies. Guangdong Investment has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges, which may limit their accountability in addressing climate change. The company’s greenhouse gas emission intensity has varied, with a reported intensity of 0.001405 kg CO2e per unit of revenue in 2022, reflecting the need for ongoing improvements in operational efficiency and emissions reduction. Overall, while Guangdong Investment has made strides in emissions reporting, the lack of defined reduction targets highlights an area for potential growth in their climate commitments.
