In 2023, NiCo Resources Limited reported a climate change impact of approximately 18,000 kg CO2e per tonne of nickel metal produced, with emissions data sourced globally. For 2024, the company indicated a Scope 3 emissions factor of about 5,700 kg CO2e per tonne of Mixed Hydroxide Precipitate product.
