Orient Cement's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Orient Cement reported total carbon emissions of approximately 3,485,763,000 kg CO2e, comprising 3,485,763,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 34,626,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. Additionally, Scope 3 emissions were recorded at about 54,287,000 kg CO2e. This reflects a continued commitment to monitoring and reporting their carbon footprint across all relevant scopes. In 2024, emissions increased slightly, with total emissions reaching approximately 3,636,900,000 kg CO2e, including 3,639,069,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 16,672,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2. Notably, Scope 3 emissions surged to approximately 641,616,000 kg CO2e, indicating a significant area for potential improvement. Despite these figures, Orient Cement has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon emissions. The absence of documented reduction strategies suggests a need for enhanced climate commitments within the industry context, particularly as global standards for emissions reduction become increasingly stringent. Overall, while Orient Cement is actively tracking its emissions, the lack of defined reduction targets highlights an opportunity for the company to strengthen its climate action framework and align with industry best practices.
