In 2023, Hindustan Aeronautics reported total carbon emissions of approximately 137,610,000 kg CO2e, comprising about 46,496,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and about 90,615,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. This represents a slight decrease in Scope 2 emissions compared to 2022, where total emissions were approximately 110,958,000 kg CO2e (46,838,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 105,578,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2). For 2024, the company anticipates a total of about 137,342,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions projected at approximately 48,876,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at about 89,066,000 kg CO2e. Hindustan Aeronautics has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives related to carbon emissions, nor have they committed to any climate pledges or SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets. The absence of such commitments suggests a need for further action in aligning with industry standards for climate responsibility. Overall, while Hindustan Aeronautics has made some progress in managing its emissions, the lack of defined reduction strategies indicates potential areas for improvement in their climate commitments.
