Polycab India Limited's reported carbon emissions

In 2024, Polycab India Limited reported total carbon emissions of approximately 40,000,000 kg CO2e, comprising 22,568,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 156,937,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 25,093,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. This marked a significant increase in emissions compared to previous years, particularly in Scope 2 emissions, which rose from 123,181,000 kg CO2e in 2023. In 2023, the company’s emissions included 6,528,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 123,181,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2. The total emissions for 2022 were 6,528,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 105,053,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2. Despite these figures, Polycab has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented climate pledges or SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) commitments suggests that while the company is aware of its emissions, it has yet to establish formal strategies for reduction. Polycab's emissions intensity per rupee of turnover has shown variability, with a reported intensity of 0.000994 for Scope 1 and 2 emissions in 2024. As the company continues to grow, its climate commitments and strategies will be crucial in addressing its environmental impact.
