Proton Holdings Bhd.'s reported carbon emissions

Inherited from DRB-HICOM Berhad

Proton Holdings Bhd., headquartered in Malaysia (MY), currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. The company is a current subsidiary of DRB-HICOM Berhad, which may influence its climate-related initiatives and reporting. As of now, Proton Holdings Bhd. has not established any documented reduction targets or commitments under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. This lack of specific targets suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. Given the absence of direct emissions data, it is essential to consider the broader context of the automotive industry, which is increasingly focusing on reducing carbon footprints and enhancing sustainability practices. Proton Holdings Bhd. may benefit from aligning its strategies with industry standards and initiatives to improve its environmental impact. For any future emissions data or climate commitments, stakeholders should monitor updates from DRB-HICOM Berhad, as they may provide insights into Proton Holdings Bhd.'s environmental performance and targets.
