In 2023, Macronix reported total carbon emissions of approximately 620,777,179 kg CO2e. This figure includes 120,502,225.4 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 254,499,054.7 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, and 245,775,899.3 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. The combined Scope 1 and 2 emissions totalled about 375,001,280 kg CO2e. Comparatively, in 2022, Macronix's total emissions were about 654,619,801 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 135,818,857.2 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions at 254,129,163.2 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions at 264,671,780.7 kg CO2e. This indicates a reduction in total emissions of approximately 33,842,622 kg CO2e from 2022 to 2023. Despite these figures, Macronix has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or commitments to frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The company does not appear to inherit emissions data from a parent organisation, and all reported data is directly from Macronix. Overall, Macronix's emissions profile reflects a significant commitment to monitoring and reporting carbon emissions, although further clarity on reduction strategies would enhance their climate commitment narrative.
