IRENA's reported carbon emissions
As of the latest available data, IRENA has not reported any carbon emissions figures, indicating a lack of specific emissions data for the most recent year. Consequently, there are no recorded totals for Scope 1, Scope 2, or Scope 3 emissions, nor any significant reduction targets or achievements documented. IRENA's climate commitments and initiatives are not detailed in the provided information, and there are no cascading emissions data from a parent or related organization. Without specific emissions data or reduction targets, it is challenging to assess IRENA's current climate impact or commitments in the context of global climate goals.
