Hyundai Wia's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Hyundai Wia reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,401,297,000 kg CO2e, with emissions distributed across various scopes: 7,659,000 kg CO2e (Scope 1), 130,823,000 kg CO2e (Scope 2), and 1,401,297,000 kg CO2e (Scope 3). This reflects a significant reliance on Scope 3 emissions, which typically encompass the entire value chain, including upstream and downstream activities. In previous years, Hyundai Wia's emissions have shown fluctuations. For instance, in 2022, the company emitted about 155,623,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 and 2 emissions totalling 155,623,000 kg CO2e and Scope 3 emissions reaching 439,799,000 kg CO2e. The trend indicates a growing awareness and reporting of emissions across all scopes, particularly Scope 3, which is crucial for comprehensive climate accountability. Despite these figures, Hyundai Wia has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or climate pledges. This lack of formal commitments may reflect a broader industry context where many companies are still developing their strategies to address climate change comprehensively. Overall, Hyundai Wia's emissions data highlights the importance of transparency in corporate climate commitments, especially as industries face increasing pressure to reduce their carbon footprints and contribute to global climate goals.
