In 2021, InterCement reported total carbon emissions of approximately 10,620,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and about 553,660,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2. This marked a slight increase in Scope 1 emissions compared to 2020, where emissions were around 9,560,000,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions were approximately 643,677,000 kg CO2e. The company's emissions data for 2019 indicates that Scope 1 emissions were about 10,550,000,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 2 emissions at approximately 704,411,000 kg CO2e. Over these years, InterCement has shown fluctuations in emissions, particularly in Scope 1, which is indicative of the challenges faced in reducing direct emissions from their operations. Despite these figures, there are currently no publicly disclosed reduction targets or climate pledges from InterCement, which suggests a need for more robust commitments to address their carbon footprint. The absence of specific reduction initiatives highlights the importance of industry-wide efforts to enhance sustainability and reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the cement sector.
