Mota Engil's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Mota Engil reported total carbon emissions of approximately 2,496,926,000 kg CO2e, comprising 2,496,926,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 24,445,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 1,484,761,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. This reflects a significant increase in emissions compared to previous years, with 2022 emissions at about 4,039,000,000 kg CO2e, 2021 at approximately 1,790,946,000 kg CO2e, and 2020 at around 470,470,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 2 combined. Mota Engil has disclosed emissions data for all three scopes (1, 2, and 3) in recent years, indicating a comprehensive approach to carbon accounting. However, the company has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, which may limit its ability to demonstrate commitment to long-term sustainability goals. The company’s emissions intensity has shown variability, with GHG emissions intensity reported at 0.00054 tCO2e per thousand euros in 2023, down from 0.00053 tCO2e in 2022 and 0.00089 tCO2e in 2021. This suggests a potential improvement in emissions efficiency relative to revenue, although the overall emissions figures indicate a need for more robust climate action strategies. Mota Engil's climate commitments and reduction initiatives remain unclear, as there are no documented reduction targets or pledges available. This context highlights the importance of establishing clear and measurable climate goals to align with global sustainability efforts.
