In 2022, Kec Corporation reported a GHG intensity of approximately 240.0 kg CO2e per tonne for cable plants and about 90.0 kg CO2e per tonne for transmission line plants. However, the company has not disclosed specific total emissions figures for Scope 1, 2, or 3, nor has it set any formal reduction targets or commitments under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Kec Corporation's emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation, indicating that the reported figures are solely from its own operations. The absence of detailed emissions data and reduction initiatives suggests that Kec Corporation may need to enhance its climate commitments to align with industry standards and expectations.
