Nestlé India Limited's reported carbon emissions
In 2024, Nestlé India Limited reported total carbon emissions of approximately 231,324,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 151,936,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2. This follows a decrease in emissions from 2022, where Scope 1 emissions were about 192,678,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions were approximately 128,646,000 kg CO2e. The company’s emissions for 2021 were higher, with Scope 1 at about 206,379,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 at around 112,879,000 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, Nestlé India has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing its carbon footprint. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while the company is actively monitoring its emissions, it may not have formalised commitments to reduce them in line with industry standards or frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Overall, Nestlé India Limited's emissions data indicates a fluctuating trend, with a notable increase in 2024 compared to previous years, highlighting the ongoing challenges in managing carbon emissions within the food and beverage sector.
