In 2022, Public Power Corporation (PPC) reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,872,043 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 1,506,398,580 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 408,964,070 kg CO2e for Scope 3 emissions. This reflects a significant focus on emissions across all scopes, particularly in Scope 2, which includes emissions from purchased electricity. Over the years, PPC has shown fluctuations in its emissions, with Scope 1 emissions peaking at about 34,352,000,000 kg CO2e in 2015 and gradually decreasing to approximately 13,402,292,510 kg CO2e by 2021. The company has not set specific reduction targets or commitments under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other formal climate pledges, indicating a potential area for improvement in their climate strategy. PPC's emissions intensity from electricity generation and lignite extraction has been a focus, with efforts to monitor and report on their carbon footprint. However, the absence of formal reduction targets suggests that while PPC is aware of its emissions, it may need to enhance its climate commitments to align with industry standards and expectations for sustainability.
