Highways's reported carbon emissions
In 2022, Highways reported total carbon emissions of approximately 21,552,000 kg CO2e, comprising 688,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 11,291,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 201,552,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. The Scope 3 emissions were significantly driven by capital goods (about 59,005,410 kg CO2e) and fuel and energy-related activities (approximately 10,795,770 kg CO2e). Over the years, Highways has shown fluctuations in emissions, with a notable decrease in total Scope 3 emissions from about 469,036,000 kg CO2e in 2019 to 201,552,000 kg CO2e in 2022. This indicates a substantial reduction effort, particularly in the management of capital goods and energy-related activities. Despite these reductions, there are currently no specific reduction targets or climate pledges documented, which suggests that while emissions have decreased, a formal commitment to future reductions may be lacking. Highways operates from its headquarters in Hong Kong and continues to navigate the complexities of carbon management within the transportation sector.
