In 2023, Iluka Resources, headquartered in Australia, reported significant carbon emissions totalling approximately 555,000,000 kg CO2e, which includes 452,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 101,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. This data reflects the company's operational impact within Australia and globally, with a total of 556,000,000 kg CO2e reported for global operations, including 454,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 102,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. Despite the substantial emissions figures, Iluka Resources has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. There are no reported SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets or other formal climate pledges. The absence of Scope 3 emissions data indicates a potential area for future reporting and improvement. Overall, while Iluka Resources has made strides in transparency regarding their emissions, the lack of defined reduction strategies suggests an opportunity for the company to enhance its climate commitments and align with industry standards for sustainability.
