Nio's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Nio reported total carbon emissions of approximately 140,412,190 kg CO2e, comprising 27,555,350 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 112,856,830 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. The previous year, 2022, saw total emissions of about 118,435,940 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 26,535,320 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 91,900,620 kg CO2e. Notably, Nio has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data for 2023. Despite the increase in emissions from 2022 to 2023, Nio has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or climate pledges. The company continues to focus on its operational emissions, particularly in Scope 1 and 2, as part of its broader climate commitments. Nio's headquarters is located in China (CN), and it operates within the electric vehicle industry, which is increasingly scrutinised for its environmental impact. The company’s emissions data reflects its ongoing efforts to manage and report on its carbon footprint, although further commitments and reduction strategies would enhance its sustainability profile.
