In 2023, NHN reported total carbon emissions of approximately 18,022,000 kg CO2e, comprising 123,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 15,798,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 18,022,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. This reflects a significant increase in emissions compared to previous years, with total emissions recorded at about 14,525,000 kg CO2e in 2022 and 13,491,000 kg CO2e in 2021. The breakdown of emissions in 2023 indicates that the majority stemmed from Scope 3, particularly from purchased goods and services, which accounted for approximately 14,443,000 kg CO2e. Scope 2 emissions also represented a substantial portion, highlighting the company's reliance on energy consumption. Despite the increase in emissions, NHN has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. This lack of defined reduction strategies may reflect broader industry challenges in addressing carbon footprints effectively. Overall, NHN's emissions data underscores the importance of developing robust climate commitments and reduction strategies to align with global sustainability goals.
