Penna Cement Industries Limited's reported carbon emissions

In 2019, Penna Cement Industries Limited reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,813,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 37,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2. Notably, there were no reported emissions for Scope 3 during that year. However, in 2020, the company disclosed zero emissions across all scopes, indicating a significant reduction or a change in reporting practices. Despite these figures, Penna Cement has not established specific reduction targets or climate pledges, which may limit its commitment to addressing climate change. The absence of defined initiatives suggests a need for further action in line with industry standards for sustainability and emissions reduction. Overall, while the company has shown a remarkable decrease in reported emissions, the lack of formal climate commitments raises questions about its long-term strategy for carbon management.
