Murray And Roberts's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Murray & Roberts reported total carbon emissions of approximately 76.4 million tonnes CO2e, comprising 6.5 million tonnes from Scope 1, 3.6 million tonnes from Scope 2, and about 64.3 million tonnes from Scope 3 emissions. This marked a significant increase in emissions compared to previous years, with total emissions recorded at approximately 102.7 million tonnes CO2e in 2022 and 56.4 million tonnes CO2e in 2021. The company has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments, indicating a lack of formalised strategies under frameworks such as the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) or the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). However, the emissions intensity for Scope 1 and Scope 2 combined was reported at 510 kg CO2e per unit of revenue in 2022, reflecting ongoing efforts to monitor and manage emissions. Murray & Roberts continues to face challenges in reducing its carbon footprint, particularly in Scope 3 emissions, which represent the majority of its total emissions. The company’s commitment to addressing climate change remains crucial as it navigates the complexities of its operational impacts on the environment.
