Hyundai Cosmo Petrochemical Co., Ltd.'s reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Hyundai Cosmo Petrochemical Co., Ltd. reported carbon emissions of approximately 7,069,038,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 954,495,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2. This marks a decrease from 2022, where emissions were approximately 7,782,328,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 1,514,839,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2. The company has consistently disclosed emissions across all three scopes, with significant figures noted in previous years. For instance, in 2021, Scope 1 emissions were about 7,620,093,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions were around 900,452,000 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, Hyundai Cosmo Petrochemical has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, indicating a potential area for future commitment. The absence of documented reduction initiatives suggests that while the company is actively monitoring its emissions, it may need to enhance its climate strategy to align with industry standards and expectations for sustainability.
