In 2023, Guangzhou Xiaopeng Automotive Technology reported total carbon emissions of approximately 162,742,000 kg CO2e globally. Within China, the company disclosed emissions of about 152,909.41 kg CO2e, which includes 5,293.39 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions and 147,616.02 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. The Scope 1 emissions primarily stem from mobile and stationary combustion, while Scope 2 emissions are entirely attributed to purchased electricity. Comparatively, in 2022, the company recorded total emissions of about 158,529.1 kg CO2e in China, indicating a slight reduction in emissions year-on-year. However, there are no specific reduction targets or climate pledges outlined in their current commitments, and emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation. Overall, while Guangzhou Xiaopeng Automotive Technology has made strides in emissions reporting, the absence of formal reduction initiatives or targets suggests an opportunity for further commitment to climate action.
