NextEra Energy Partners's reported carbon emissions

There were no reported Scope 3 emissions. This marked a significant increase from previous years, with emissions in 2019 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 in 2018 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 aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of a climate pledge or Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) commitments suggests a need for further transparency regarding their climate strategies. As a leader in the energy sector, the company is positioned to enhance its climate commitments and align with industry standards for emissions reduction.
