Koh Young Technology Inc.'s reported carbon emissions

In 2020, Koh Young Technology Inc., headquartered in South Korea (KR), reported total carbon emissions of approximately 2,760,500 kg CO2e, comprising 423,600 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 2,376,900 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. The company has not disclosed emissions data for 2021, nor has it provided specific targets for emissions reduction or climate commitments. The emissions data indicates a significant reliance on electricity and other indirect sources, as evidenced by the higher Scope 2 emissions. Koh Young's emissions intensity was reported at about 0.0000125 kg CO2e per unit of revenue in 2021, reflecting its operational efficiency relative to revenue generation. Despite the absence of specific reduction targets or initiatives, Koh Young Technology Inc. is actively engaged in monitoring its carbon footprint, as indicated by its participation in the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). However, no cascading data from parent or related organizations has been reported, suggesting that the company is independently managing its emissions reporting and climate strategy. Overall, while Koh Young Technology Inc. has made strides in emissions reporting, further commitments and specific reduction targets would enhance its climate action profile.
