In 2023, Huntington Bancshares reported total carbon emissions of approximately 16331000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 50793000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 1798928000 kg CO2e for Scope 3 emissions. This indicates a significant reliance on indirect emissions, particularly from purchased goods and services, which accounted for a substantial portion of their total emissions. Over the years, Huntington has shown a trend in emissions management, with Scope 1 emissions decreasing from about 14341000 kg CO2e in 2017 to 16331000 kg CO2e in 2023, while Scope 2 emissions have also fluctuated, peaking at 77722000 kg CO2e in 2017. However, there are no specific reduction targets or initiatives disclosed in their reports, indicating a potential area for improvement in their climate commitments. Huntington Bancshares has acknowledged the importance of addressing climate change but has not set formal reduction targets through initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Their emissions data reflects a comprehensive approach to understanding their carbon footprint, but the absence of specific reduction commitments may limit their effectiveness in combating climate change.
