Hawaiian Electric Industries's reported carbon emissions

Hawaiian Electric Industries (HEI), headquartered in the US and operating within the Electrical machinery and apparatus n.e.c. (31) industry, has disclosed its carbon emissions and climate commitments. For 2023, HEI reported Scope 1 emissions of approximately 4,418,695,000 kg CO2e, primarily from stationary combustion. Scope 3 emissions for the same year were approximately 2,229,711,000 kg CO2e, with purchased goods and services being a significant contributor. In 2022, HEI's Scope 1 emissions stood at approximately 4,109,983,000 kg CO2e, with stationary combustion being the largest source. Scope 3 emissions for 2022 were approximately 2,792,753,000 kg CO2e, also with purchased goods and services as the primary category. Looking back, Scope 1 emissions in 2021 were approximately 3,690,345,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions were approximately 3,121,060,000 kg CO2e. In 2020, Scope 1 emissions were approximately 3,741,406,000 kg CO2e and Scope 3 emissions were approximately 3,168,991,000 kg CO2e. For 2019, HEI reported Scope 1 emissions of approximately 4,098,096,000 kg CO2e and Scope 3 emissions of approximately 3,872,422,000 kg CO2e. In 2015, Scope 1 emissions were approximately 4,098,096,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions were approximately 3,872,166,000 kg CO2e. Hawaiian Electric has made a significant commitment to achieving net zero carbon emissions from power generation by 2045 or sooner. Additionally, in line with the State of Hawai‘i Act 234, HEI and its partners were required to reduce GHG emissions by 16% below their collective 2010 emission levels by 2020. HEI is also noted as a 'BA1.5 member' with a commitment date of November 1, 2021, indicating alignment with science-based targets for limiting global warming to 1.5°C. While SBTi reduction targets have been mentioned, specific details regarding their classification and timeframe could not be fully extracted.
