This marked a reduction from 2020, where emissions were about 244,318,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at 203,224,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 at 41,094,000 kg CO2e. Over the years, PanAust has shown a trend of decreasing emissions, with 2019 emissions recorded at approximately 266,031,000 kg CO2e (215,221,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 50,681,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2). However, the company has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data in recent reports. Despite these reductions, PanAust has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests a need for further strategic planning in their sustainability efforts. The company continues to focus on improving its emissions intensity, particularly in its Phu Kham Operation, which has reported varying emissions intensities over the years. Overall, while PanAust has made progress in reducing its carbon footprint, the lack of formal reduction targets indicates potential areas for improvement in their climate strategy.
