This figure includes 6,838,900 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions and 150,848,800 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. The company has consistently disclosed its emissions across all relevant scopes, including Scope 3, although specific data for Scope 3 emissions is not provided for 2023. Over the years, Hikvision's emissions have shown a general upward trend, with total emissions increasing from about 77,648,000 kg CO2e in 2018 to the latest figure in 2023. Notably, in 2021, the company reported total emissions of approximately 157,621,000 kg CO2e, which is comparable to the 2023 data, indicating a stabilisation in emissions despite revenue growth. Hikvision has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, nor have they committed to Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) reduction targets. This lack of formal commitments may reflect a broader industry context where many companies are still developing comprehensive climate strategies. Overall, while Hikvision has made strides in emissions reporting, the absence of reduction initiatives or targets suggests an opportunity for the company to enhance its climate commitments and align with global sustainability trends.
