Nyrstar NV's reported carbon emissions
Nyrstar NV, headquartered in Belgium, reported its carbon emissions data for the years 2013 to 2017, focusing solely on Scope 1 emissions. In 2013, the company emitted approximately 46,071,000 kg CO2e. This figure decreased to about 38,568,000 kg CO2e in 2014, followed by a further reduction to approximately 42,428,000 kg CO2e in 2015. By 2016, emissions dropped significantly to around 27,948,000 kg CO2e, and in 2017, they were reported at about 29,803,000 kg CO2e. Despite these reductions, Nyrstar NV has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or commitments under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or any other climate pledges. The absence of Scope 2 and Scope 3 emissions data indicates a potential area for improvement in their overall emissions reporting and climate strategy. As the industry increasingly focuses on comprehensive climate commitments, Nyrstar NV may need to enhance its transparency and set ambitious targets to align with global climate goals.
