In 2023, MERALCO MGEN Power Generation, headquartered in the Philippines, reported significant carbon emissions totalling approximately 10,200,084,400 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 230,180,110 kg CO2e for Scope 2. The Scope 1 emissions primarily stem from gasoline consumption and coal combustion, with specific figures of 69,240 tonnes CO2e and 8,000 tonnes CO2e, respectively. For the previous year, 2022, the company disclosed Scope 2 emissions of about 255,473,170 kg CO2e, while Scope 1 emissions data was not available. Despite the substantial emissions figures, MERALCO MGEN Power Generation has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The emissions data is cascaded from its parent company, Meralco PowerGen Corporation, which is part of the Manila Electric Company corporate family. Overall, while MERALCO MGEN Power Generation has made strides in reporting its emissions, it currently lacks defined climate commitments or reduction strategies, placing it in a challenging position within the industry context of increasing climate accountability.
