Prayon's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Prayon, headquartered in Belgium, reported no specific carbon emissions data, with no disclosed Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions figures available. The previous years also lacked detailed emissions data, indicating a potential gap in transparency regarding their carbon footprint. Prayon has set ambitious climate commitments, particularly focusing on reducing Scope 1 emissions. They aim for a significant reduction of 62% by 2050 compared to 2005 levels at their Engis and Puurs sites. Additionally, for their Bex site, they have established a near-term target of reducing CO2 emissions by 2% annually, in line with local CO2 legislation, with this initiative starting in 2013 and concluding in 2023. As a current subsidiary of Prayon S.A., their climate initiatives and targets are cascaded from the parent company, which may influence their overall sustainability strategy. However, specific Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) targets have not been reported. Overall, while Prayon has set clear reduction targets, the absence of detailed emissions data limits the ability to assess their progress comprehensively.
