Mol's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, MOL Group reported total carbon emissions of approximately 66,400,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 810,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2 (market-based), and about 55,767,391,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3 emissions. This reflects a commitment to transparency in their emissions reporting, covering all three scopes of emissions. Over the years, MOL has shown a trend of emissions management, with Scope 1 emissions peaking at about 107,632,000 kg CO2e in 2015 and gradually decreasing to the current level. However, there are no specific reduction targets or initiatives disclosed in their recent reports, indicating a potential area for improvement in their climate commitments. MOL's emissions data highlights their significant reliance on fossil fuels, particularly in refining and petrochemical production, which are key contributors to their overall carbon footprint. The company has not yet established Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) reduction targets, which are crucial for aligning with global climate goals. Overall, while MOL Group has made strides in emissions reporting, the absence of defined reduction targets suggests a need for enhanced climate action strategies to effectively address their carbon emissions and contribute to global sustainability efforts.
