Hydro One, headquartered in Canada and operating in the distribution and trade services of electricity industry, has established climate commitments and reported on its carbon emissions.

For the most recent reported year, 2024, Hydro One reported Scope 1 emissions of approximately 98,914,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions of approximately 1,991,000 kg CO2e. In 2023, Scope 1 emissions were approximately 129,994,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions were approximately 1,363,000 kg CO2e. Prior to that, in 2022, Scope 1 emissions totalled approximately 149,995,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 2 emissions at approximately 1,435,000 kg CO2e.

Hydro One has set a target to reduce its "operations-driven" Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 30% by 2030, using a 2018 baseline. The company is also working towards achieving net-zero GHG emissions by 2050. Initiatives include developing partnerships to find SF6-free solutions, with plans to pilot non-SF6 equipment for lower voltages in 2024. The company is currently reviewing its 30% reduction target for 2030 in light of recent increases in Scope 2 emissions.

While Hydro One has reported Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions data, Scope 3 emissions data is not fully disclosed, with "scope_3/fuel_and_energy_related_activities" noted as a missing data point in several reporting years. The provided data does not include a total sum of Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions for any year.
