Kcp's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Kcp reported significant carbon emissions, totalling approximately 2,270,640,000 kg CO2e. This figure comprises about 2,259,671,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions and around 114,369,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. The company has also disclosed emissions data for 2022, where total emissions were about 2,058,174,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 2,047,904,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at about 108,381,000 kg CO2e. Kcp has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments, nor has it engaged with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) for formal reduction targets. The absence of Scope 3 emissions data indicates a potential area for future focus, as these emissions often represent a significant portion of a company's overall carbon footprint. As Kcp continues to operate globally, its emissions and climate strategies will be crucial in addressing climate change and aligning with industry standards for sustainability.
