In 2023, Hutchmed reported total carbon emissions of approximately 78,772,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 320,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which are direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, and 6,640,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, representing indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity, steam, heating, and cooling. The majority of their emissions, about 71,812,000 kg CO2e, fall under Scope 3, which encompasses all other indirect emissions in the value chain. Notably, the largest contributors to Scope 3 emissions include purchased goods and services (approximately 58,103,089 kg CO2e) and upstream leased assets (about 4,236,908 kg CO2e). Hutchmed has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. However, the company is actively monitoring and reporting its emissions across all scopes, demonstrating a commitment to transparency in its climate impact. The absence of defined reduction targets suggests that while Hutchmed is aware of its emissions, it may still be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy.
