Midwestern's reported carbon emissions
In 2021, Midwestern reported total carbon emissions of approximately 48,000,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 16,270,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which encompass direct emissions from owned or controlled sources. Scope 2 emissions, related to the generation of purchased electricity, steam, heating, and cooling, accounted for about 8,818,000 kg CO2e. Additionally, Scope 3 emissions, which cover indirect emissions from the value chain, totalled approximately 29,276,000 kg CO2e, with 4,900,000 kg CO2e attributed to purchased goods and services. Currently, Midwestern has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. This lack of formal commitments suggests that while the company is aware of its emissions profile, it may need to establish clearer strategies for reducing its carbon footprint in line with industry standards.
