Novelis Inc.'s reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Novelis Inc. reported approximately 17,300,000 kg CO2e in greenhouse gas emissions, with no specific breakdown by scope. The previous year, 2022, the company disclosed total emissions of about 20,418,000,000 kg CO2e, which included 1,387,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 898,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 18,133,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. This indicates a significant reliance on upstream emissions, which are critical in the aluminium industry. Novelis has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. However, the company is a current subsidiary of Hindalco Industries Limited, which may influence its climate strategies and commitments. The emissions data and climate commitments are cascaded from its parent company, reflecting a broader corporate responsibility towards sustainability. The company’s emissions intensity is reported at about 4,000 kg CO2e per tonne of flat-rolled product shipped, highlighting the environmental impact of its production processes. As Novelis continues to advance its sustainability efforts, it remains essential for the company to establish clear reduction targets to align with global climate goals.
