Manawa Energy Limited's reported carbon emissions

In 2022, Manawa Energy Limited, headquartered in New Zealand, reported a production emission factor of approximately 0.5 tonnes of carbon dioxide released per kilowatt hour of energy produced, although specific total emissions data for Scope 1, 2, and 3 were not disclosed. The company is a current subsidiary of Contact Energy Limited, which may influence its emissions data and climate commitments. As of now, Manawa Energy has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives, nor does it participate in the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of disclosed emissions data and reduction strategies suggests that the company may still be developing its approach to carbon management and climate action. Overall, while Manawa Energy Limited has a foundational understanding of its emissions through its production processes, further transparency and commitment to reduction targets will be essential for aligning with industry standards and addressing climate change effectively.
