In 2023, the Manitoba Hydro-Electric Board reported carbon emissions of approximately 128,000,000,000 kg CO2e, primarily from Scope 1 emissions, which encompass direct emissions from owned or controlled sources. This figure represents a slight decrease from 2010, when emissions were about 132,000,000 kg CO2e. Notably, there were no reported emissions from Scope 2 or Scope 3 categories during these years. Despite the significant volume of emissions, the Manitoba Hydro-Electric Board has not established specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. This lack of defined goals may reflect broader industry challenges in addressing carbon emissions effectively. The organisation's focus appears to be on managing its existing emissions profile without publicly committing to specific reduction strategies or pledges.
