In 2024, HEG Limited reported significant carbon emissions, with Scope 1 emissions totalling approximately 46,304,700 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions reaching about 266,838,540 kg CO2e in India. This data reflects a commitment to transparency in their environmental impact, although no Scope 3 emissions data was disclosed. For the previous year, 2023, HEG Limited's global emissions were reported at approximately 717,395,000 kg CO2e, which included Scope 1 emissions of about 90,300,970 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of approximately 266,838,540 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions of around 360,255,000 kg CO2e. In India, the 2023 emissions were approximately 48,415,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 268,385,850 kg CO2e for Scope 2. Despite these figures, HEG Limited has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or commitments to frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The company’s emissions data is not cascaded from a parent organisation, ensuring that the reported figures are solely reflective of HEG Limited's operations. Overall, while HEG Limited has made strides in disclosing its emissions, the lack of defined reduction strategies highlights an area for potential improvement in their climate commitments.
