This marks a substantial increase compared to previous years, where in 2023, the company emitted around 752,000 kg CO2e in Scope 1 and approximately 431,000 kg CO2e in Scope 2. In 2022, emissions were lower, with Scope 1 at about 150,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 at approximately 260,000 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, Paladin Energy has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of a climate pledge or formal commitments to emissions reduction suggests that the company may be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. As the industry increasingly prioritises sustainability, Paladin Energy's future commitments will be crucial in aligning with global climate goals.
