In 2023, Magnit reported total carbon emissions of approximately 5,450,000,000 kg CO2e, comprising 2,390,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions and 3,060,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. This reflects a specific GHG emissions factor of about 0.1579 tonnes CO2e per million RUB in revenue. Over the years, Magnit has shown a trend in its emissions data. In 2022, the company recorded total emissions of about 5,490,000,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 2,510,000,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 2,980,000,000 kg CO2e. The emissions factor for that year was approximately 0.1746 tonnes CO2e per million RUB. In 2021, Magnit's emissions were around 5,470,000,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions of 2,210,000,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions of 2,860,000,000 kg CO2e, indicating a slight decrease in emissions intensity compared to previous years. Despite these figures, Magnit has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments. The absence of documented reduction strategies suggests that while the company is tracking its emissions, it may not yet have formalised plans to significantly reduce its carbon footprint in the near future.
