Let us know if this data was useful to you
Jinko Solar Co., Ltd., headquartered in China (CN), currently does not report specific carbon emissions data for the most recent year, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. The company is a current subsidiary of JinkoSolar Holding Co., Ltd., which may influence its climate commitments and performance metrics. Despite the lack of direct emissions data, Jinko Solar is engaged in various climate initiatives through its parent company. These initiatives include commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and the RE100 initiative, both of which are aimed at reducing carbon footprints and transitioning to renewable energy sources. The SBTi targets and RE100 commitments are cascaded from JinkoSolar Holding Co., Ltd., reflecting the company's alignment with industry standards for climate action. Jinko Solar's climate strategy appears to focus on sustainability and reducing environmental impact, although specific reduction targets or achievements have not been disclosed. The absence of detailed emissions data and reduction initiatives suggests that the company may still be in the process of formalising its climate commitments or reporting practices.
