In 2023, Philippine National Bank reported total carbon emissions of approximately 2,617,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 1,237,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which are direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, and 70,638,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, representing indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity, steam, heating, and cooling. Additionally, the bank's Scope 3 emissions also totalled 2,617,000 kg CO2e, which encompass all other indirect emissions not included in Scope 2. Comparatively, in 2022, the bank's total emissions were about 1,237,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 1,229,800 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 66,784,100 kg CO2e. The significant increase in emissions from 2022 to 2023 highlights the need for enhanced climate action. Despite these figures, Philippine National Bank has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments. The bank's emissions data is independently reported and does not cascade from any parent organisation. As such, it operates without the influence of broader corporate sustainability initiatives like the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. Overall, while Philippine National Bank has made strides in transparency regarding its emissions, the absence of defined reduction targets indicates an opportunity for further commitment to climate action.
