In 2020, NextEra Energy Partners reported total carbon emissions of approximately 64,993,000 kg CO2e, comprising 52,753,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 11,426,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. The company has shown a significant reduction in emissions over the years, with Scope 1 emissions decreasing from about 17,235,000 kg CO2e in 2016 to 9,791,000 kg CO2e in 2019, indicating a commitment to lowering its carbon footprint. Despite these reductions, there are currently no specific reduction targets or initiatives disclosed by NextEra Energy Partners, such as Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) commitments or other climate pledges. The absence of Scope 3 emissions data suggests a focus on direct and indirect emissions from operations, while the company continues to operate within the renewable energy sector, which is inherently aligned with climate action goals. NextEra Energy Partners' ongoing efforts to reduce emissions reflect its commitment to sustainability and climate responsibility, although further transparency regarding future targets would enhance its climate strategy.
