This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 3.15 billion kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of approximately 693.9 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions of around 3.23 billion kg CO2e.

K Electric's emissions data is cascaded from its parent company, K-Electric Limited, reflecting its commitment to transparency and accountability in climate reporting. However, there are currently no specific reduction targets or initiatives disclosed in their sustainability reports. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while K Electric is actively monitoring its emissions, it has yet to establish formal commitments to reduce its carbon footprint. Overall, K Electric's emissions profile highlights the significant challenges faced by energy companies in managing their environmental impact, particularly in the context of global climate commitments.
