In 2022, the Institute of Energy at Peking University reported a power generation emission factor of approximately 815.9 kg CO2e per MWh. This figure reflects the carbon intensity of their electricity generation, which has shown a reduction from about 820.0 kg CO2e per MWh in 2021 and 979.0 kg CO2e per MWh in 2020. Despite these reductions in carbon intensity, the Institute has not disclosed specific Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions data, nor have they set formal reduction targets or climate pledges. The absence of documented reduction initiatives or commitments indicates a need for further clarity on their climate strategy. The emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation, and all figures are derived directly from the Institute's own reporting. The Institute of Energy at Peking University continues to engage in efforts to address climate change, although specific commitments and targets remain unspecified.
