JEA's reported carbon emissions
JEA, headquartered in the US, currently does not provide specific carbon emissions data for the most recent year, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. Consequently, there are no reported Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions data available for analysis. In terms of climate commitments, JEA has not outlined any specific reduction targets or initiatives, including those aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The lack of documented climate pledges or reduction strategies suggests that JEA may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate action framework. As there is no emissions data or reduction commitments available, it is essential for JEA to establish clear climate goals and strategies to enhance its sustainability profile and align with industry standards.
