John Cockerill Group's reported carbon emissions

As of the latest available data, John Cockerill Group has not reported specific carbon emissions figures for the most recent year. However, the company has made significant strides in its climate commitments and reduction initiatives. In 2021, John Cockerill conducted a carbon footprint assessment at its headquarters in Seraing, Belgium, which revealed a reduction in emissions from 17,000,000 kg CO2e in 2019 to 11,000,000 kg CO2e in 2020, marking a 35% decrease. This reduction was partly attributed to the unique circumstances arising from the health crisis. The Group is actively working towards creating a green hydrogen ecosystem, with plans to introduce thirteen hydrogen-powered buses by 2025, followed by a gradual conversion of all buses and refuse collection vehicles by 2030. This initiative aims to achieve zero CO2 emissions from these vehicles. Additionally, John Cockerill's Cerro Dominador complex is expected to avoid approximately 840,000,000 kg CO2e annually through the use of molten salt technology, which enables efficient heat storage and electricity production. Overall, John Cockerill Group is committed to reducing its carbon footprint and advancing towards net-zero emissions, focusing on both Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions through innovative projects and technologies.
