InterCement's reported carbon emissions
In 2021, InterCement reported total carbon emissions of approximately 10,620,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 553,660,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2. This data reflects a significant operational footprint, with Scope 1 emissions primarily arising from direct activities, while Scope 2 emissions are linked to energy consumption. Comparatively, in 2020, the company recorded about 9,560,000,000 kg CO2e in Scope 1 emissions and approximately 643,677,000 kg CO2e in Scope 2 emissions. This indicates a rise in emissions from 2020 to 2021, highlighting the challenges faced in reducing carbon output. InterCement has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments, nor does it report on Scope 3 emissions. The emissions data is cascaded from its parent company, InterCement Brasil S.A., reflecting the broader corporate family’s environmental impact. Overall, while InterCement's emissions data provides insight into its carbon footprint, the absence of defined reduction targets suggests a need for enhanced climate action strategies within the organisation.
