In 2022, Maxar Technologies, headquartered in the US, reported total carbon emissions of approximately 26,000,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 6,570,950 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 19,907,060 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, and 457,220 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions, specifically attributed to business travel. Comparatively, in 2021, the company recorded about 25,000,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 6,339,630 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 24,613,050 kg CO2e. The 2020 emissions were higher, totalling approximately 33,000,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at 7,795,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 at 25,975,000 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, Maxar Technologies has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, nor do they have any initiatives reported under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of documented reduction targets suggests a need for further commitment to climate action within the industry context. Overall, while Maxar Technologies has made strides in tracking and reporting emissions, the lack of defined reduction strategies indicates an opportunity for enhanced climate commitments moving forward.
