The emissions data is cascaded from their parent company, State Power Investment Corporation Limited, indicating a corporate family relationship that influences their reporting. Overall, while Pacific Hydro has made strides in emissions reporting, further clarity on their climate commitments and reduction strategies would enhance their sustainability profile.
