Orient Electric's reported carbon emissions

In 2024, Orient Electric reported total carbon emissions of approximately 133,000,000 kg CO2e, comprising 802,440 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 5,127,570 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and a significant 126,062,520 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. This marked an increase in emissions compared to 2023, where the company recorded about 4,175,570 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 2 combined, with no Scope 3 data disclosed. In 2022, the emissions were approximately 1,440,650 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 4,857,820 kg CO2e for Scope 2. The trend indicates a growing carbon footprint, particularly in Scope 3 emissions, which are often the most challenging to manage due to their indirect nature. Despite the increase in emissions, there are currently no publicly disclosed reduction targets or climate pledges from Orient Electric. The company has not committed to any specific science-based targets or initiatives aimed at reducing its carbon footprint. As the industry increasingly focuses on sustainability, Orient Electric's lack of defined climate commitments may impact its competitive positioning in the market.
