Primetals Technologies's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Primetals Technologies, headquartered in Austria (AT), reported significant carbon emissions associated with its production processes, specifically in the steel sector. The company generated approximately 940,000 kg CO2e per tonne of liquid steel produced. However, detailed emissions data for Scope 1, 2, and 3 are not disclosed, indicating a lack of comprehensive reporting on their direct and indirect emissions. Currently, Primetals Technologies does not have publicly stated reduction targets or commitments under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of specific reduction initiatives suggests that the company may be in the early stages of developing a structured approach to climate commitments. It is important to note that emissions data and climate initiatives may be influenced by its parent company, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd., from which some climate-related data and initiatives are cascaded. As a current subsidiary, Primetals Technologies may align its strategies with the broader sustainability goals set by its parent organisation. Overall, while Primetals Technologies has reported substantial emissions from its production activities, the lack of detailed emissions data and reduction commitments highlights an area for potential improvement in their climate strategy.
