Rail Vikas Nigam Limited's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Rail Vikas Nigam Limited (RVNL) reported significant carbon emissions, totalling approximately 13,208,780,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 1,656,040,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2. This represents a notable increase from 2022, where emissions were approximately 7,707,440,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 1,060,600,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2. Despite the increase in emissions, RVNL has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, indicating a lack of formal commitments to reduce their carbon footprint. The absence of Scope 3 emissions data suggests that RVNL is currently focusing on direct emissions from their operations and energy consumption. As a key player in the rail infrastructure sector in India, RVNL's emissions data reflects the broader challenges faced by the industry in addressing climate change. The company has not inherited emissions data from any parent organisation, and all reported figures are derived directly from RVNL's own disclosures. Overall, while RVNL's emissions figures are substantial, the lack of reduction initiatives or targets highlights an area for potential improvement in their climate strategy.
