Norsat's reported carbon emissions
Norsat, headquartered in Canada, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures in kg CO2e. The company is a current subsidiary of Norsat International Inc., which may influence its climate commitments and reporting practices. While Norsat has not established specific reduction targets or initiatives, it is important to note that emissions data may be cascaded from its parent company or related organizations. For instance, Norsat's climate performance may be informed by data from Hytera Communications Corporation Limited, which operates at a cascade level of 2. However, no specific emissions figures or reduction targets have been provided from these sources. In the context of industry standards, Norsat's lack of reported emissions data and reduction initiatives suggests an opportunity for the company to enhance its climate commitments and align with best practices in sustainability. As the global focus on carbon neutrality intensifies, Norsat may benefit from developing clear targets and strategies to address its carbon footprint in the future.
