The company has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions. Over the years, emissions have varied, with 2020 showing Scope 1 emissions of about 52,753,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions of approximately 11,426,000 kg CO2e. In 2019, Scope 1 emissions were around 9,791,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions were about 6,168,000 kg CO2e. The trend indicates a fluctuation in emissions, with a notable increase in 2021 compared to previous years. NextEra Energy Partners has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The company does not appear to inherit emissions data from a parent organisation, maintaining its own reporting standards. Overall, while NextEra Energy Partners has made strides in transparency regarding its emissions, the lack of defined reduction targets suggests an area for potential improvement in its climate commitments.
