Korea Environment Corporation's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, the Korea Environment Corporation reported total carbon emissions of approximately 13,891,000 kg CO2e, comprising 2,008,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 11,711,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. This marks a reduction from 2022, where total emissions were about 12,000,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 2,256,300 kg CO2e and Scope 2 at 11,538,800 kg CO2e. In 2021, the corporation's emissions were approximately 11,000,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 2,242,700 kg CO2e and Scope 2 at 10,935,400 kg CO2e. The trend indicates a gradual decrease in emissions over the years, particularly in Scope 1 and Scope 2 categories. Despite these reductions, the Korea Environment Corporation has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or commitments under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of documented reduction initiatives suggests a need for more defined climate strategies moving forward.
