Incyte Corporation, headquartered in the US, reported a total of approximately 10,216,000 kg CO2e in market-based Scope 1 and 2 emissions for the year 2023. This figure includes about 9,351,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions and approximately 865,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. Additionally, Scope 3 emissions were reported at approximately 4,549,000 kg CO2e from business travel, 360,000 kg CO2e from waste generated in operations, and about 3,830,000 kg CO2e from fuel and energy-related activities. Incyte's emissions data shows a commitment to transparency, with disclosures across all three scopes (1, 2, and 3) for the years 2021 to 2023. However, there are currently no specific reduction targets or initiatives outlined in their reports, indicating a potential area for future development in their climate strategy. The company has demonstrated a consistent emissions intensity, with metrics such as approximately 2.8 kg CO2e per $1 million in revenue and 4.0 kg CO2e per employee for the year 2023. This data reflects Incyte's ongoing efforts to monitor and manage its carbon footprint, although further commitments to reduction targets would enhance its climate action profile. Overall, while Incyte has made strides in emissions reporting, the absence of defined reduction targets suggests an opportunity for the company to strengthen its climate commitments moving forward.
