Hindustan Petroleum's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Hindustan Petroleum reported total carbon emissions of approximately 15,000,000,000 kg CO2e, comprising 4,304,201,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 776,480,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and about 12,950,066,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. This marked an increase in emissions compared to previous years, reflecting the challenges faced in reducing carbon output amidst growing operational demands. The company has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing its carbon footprint. However, it continues to monitor and report its emissions across all three scopes, indicating a commitment to transparency in its environmental impact. Hindustan Petroleum's emissions intensity metrics, such as emissions per rupee of turnover and emissions per refinery throughput, are also tracked, with values of 0.000275 INR and 266.0 kg CO2e respectively in 2023. These metrics are essential for assessing the company's operational efficiency and environmental performance over time. Overall, while Hindustan Petroleum has made strides in emissions reporting, the absence of defined reduction targets suggests a need for enhanced climate commitments to align with global sustainability goals.
