LG Uplus, headquartered in South Korea, reported total Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions of approximately 1.8 billion kg CO2e in 2024. This includes around 6.9 million kg CO2e from Scope 1, 1.3 billion kg CO2e from Scope 2 (market-based), and 504.4 million kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions.

In 2023, their emissions totalled approximately 1.9 billion kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at about 7.8 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 (market-based) at around 1.4 billion kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at about 560.4 million kg CO2e. Looking back to 2022, total emissions were approximately 2.1 billion kg CO2e, comprising around 7.5 million kg CO2e from Scope 1, 1.4 billion kg CO2e from Scope 2 (market-based), and 621.6 million kg CO2e from Scope 3.

LG Uplus has set ambitious climate commitments. The company aims to reduce its Scope 1 GHG emissions by 54.6% by 2033 from a 2022 base year. Similarly, they are committed to reducing their Scope 2 GHG emissions by 54.6% by 2033, also from a 2022 base year. Furthermore, LG Uplus pledges to reduce absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 32.5% by 2033 from a 2023 base year. These near-term targets for Scope 1 and 2 emissions are consistent with reductions required to keep global warming to 1.5°C, as validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The company has also set a long-term goal to achieve Net Zero by 2050, alongside a mission to reduce overall GHG emissions by 38% by 2030, with a 2022 baseline.
