In 2023, Hellenic Petroleum reported total carbon emissions of approximately 49,753,174,070 kg CO2e. This figure includes 2,162,407,680 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which are direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, and 86,415,700 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, representing indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity, steam, heating, and cooling. The majority of their emissions, about 47,619,301,390 kg CO2e, fall under Scope 3, which encompasses all other indirect emissions in the value chain. In comparison, their 2022 emissions were slightly lower at approximately 49,619,301,390 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 2,212,167,010 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 83,913,230 kg CO2e. The trend indicates a stable level of emissions over the years, with minor fluctuations. Hellenic Petroleum has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate strategy, nor have they engaged with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) for formal targets. This lack of defined reduction commitments suggests that while the company is aware of its emissions profile, it may need to enhance its climate action strategy to align with industry standards and expectations for sustainability.
