Metallurgical Corporation Of China's reported carbon emissions

Metallurgical Corporation of China (MCC), a construction work company headquartered in China, has disclosed its carbon emissions data for the years 2020 through 2025. In 2025, MCC reported Scope 1 emissions of approximately 1.18 billion kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions of approximately 2.85 billion kg CO2e. For 2024, Scope 1 emissions were approximately 2.24 billion kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions were about 3.23 billion kg CO2e. The preceding year, 2023, saw Scope 1 emissions of approximately 2.58 billion kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions of about 4.12 billion kg CO2e. In 2022, MCC recorded Scope 1 emissions of approximately 2.70 billion kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions of approximately 4.16 billion kg CO2e. For 2021, Scope 1 emissions were about 2.60 billion kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions were approximately 3.89 billion kg CO2e. In 2020, Scope 1 emissions stood at approximately 3.00 billion kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at about 3.43 billion kg CO2e. MCC is actively engaged in climate action, with several reduction targets and initiatives in place. The company is preparing a Carbon Peak and Carbon Neutrality Action Plan, aiming to achieve net zero emissions by 2050. This plan is being developed under the guidance of China Minmetals Corporation to clarify MCC's 'Dual Carbon' target setting and pathway. More specifically, MCC aims to reduce its direct greenhouse gas (Scope 1) emissions by 30% from 2020 levels by 2030. Concurrently, it targets a reduction of 25% in its indirect (Scope 2) greenhouse gas emissions from 2020 levels by 2030. Furthermore, a project involving supercritical gas generating units, developed by MCC's subsidiary WISDRI, has pioneered clean gas power generation technology. This technology, implemented across various provinces with a total installed capacity of 1,855MW, has resulted in an annual equivalent CO2 emission reduction of approximately 8.70 million tonnes.
