In 2020, NextEra Energy Partners reported total carbon emissions of approximately 64,000,000 kg CO2e, comprising 52,753,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 11,426,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. There were no reported Scope 3 emissions. This data reflects a significant increase in emissions compared to previous years, with 2019 emissions at about 15,700,000 kg CO2e (9,791,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 6,168,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2) and 2018 emissions at approximately 18,000,000 kg CO2e (12,663,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 6,247,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2). Despite the increase in emissions, NextEra Energy Partners has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. The company does not appear to have cascaded any emissions reduction targets from parent organisations or industry initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). NextEra Energy Partners operates within the renewable energy sector, which is increasingly focused on reducing carbon footprints and enhancing sustainability practices. However, the absence of defined reduction targets may indicate a need for further commitment to climate action in alignment with industry standards.
