Pe Chemicals's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Pe Chemicals reported emissions related to their operations, specifically noting that conventional ethane crackers produce approximately 850 kg CO2e per metric ton of ethylene. However, there is no specific total emissions data disclosed for the year, nor are there any defined reduction targets or climate pledges outlined in their commitments. Pe Chemicals operates without specified Scope 1 or Scope 2 emissions data, indicating a lack of detailed reporting on direct and indirect emissions from their facilities and energy use. Furthermore, there are no commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other reduction initiatives, suggesting that the company has yet to establish formal climate commitments or reduction strategies. Overall, while Pe Chemicals acknowledges the emissions associated with their production processes, they currently lack comprehensive data and defined targets to address their carbon footprint effectively.
