In 2020, Hoteles Turísticos Unidos S.A. reported carbon emissions of approximately 134,762 kg CO2e for Scope 2 and about 145,666 kg CO2e for Scope 3. This data indicates a focus on indirect emissions associated with energy consumption and the broader supply chain. Comparatively, in 2019, the company recorded Scope 2 emissions of around 120,386 kg CO2e and Scope 3 emissions of approximately 410,887 kg CO2e, highlighting a significant reduction in Scope 3 emissions in 2020. In 2018, emissions were reported at 153,699 kg CO2e for Scope 2 and 53,982 kg CO2e for Scope 3, showing a trend of fluctuating emissions over the years. Despite these figures, Hoteles Turísticos Unidos S.A. has not established specific reduction targets or initiatives, nor do they participate in recognised climate pledges such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of a structured climate commitment may reflect a broader industry context where many hospitality companies are increasingly pressured to enhance their sustainability practices. Overall, while the company has made strides in managing its emissions, particularly in Scope 3, the lack of formal reduction targets suggests an opportunity for further commitment to climate action.
