Lyca Mobile's reported carbon emissions

In 2022, Lyca Mobile reported significant carbon emissions, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 2,671,000 kg CO2e, primarily from stationary combustion. Their Scope 2 emissions were notably higher, reaching about 115,352,000 kg CO2e, derived entirely from purchased electricity. In 2021, the company had even higher emissions, with Scope 1 at about 26,535,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at approximately 99,130,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions at around 1,598,000 kg CO2e, mainly from business travel. Despite these figures, Lyca Mobile has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, nor have they joined any formal climate pledges. This lack of defined climate commitments places them in a challenging position within the telecommunications industry, where many companies are increasingly adopting ambitious sustainability goals. As they move forward, establishing clear reduction targets could enhance their environmental impact and align them with industry standards.
