In 2022, Remgro reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,508,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 2,178,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 793,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3 emissions. This data reflects a comprehensive approach to emissions reporting, covering all three scopes. Comparatively, in 2021, Remgro's emissions were about 1,438,000 kg CO2e (Scope 1), 1,971,000 kg CO2e (Scope 2), and 289,000 kg CO2e (Scope 3). Notably, the company has shown a significant increase in Scope 2 emissions, indicating a potential rise in energy consumption or changes in energy sourcing. Over the years, Remgro's emissions have fluctuated, with 2020 figures showing much higher emissions: 373,971,000 kg CO2e (Scope 1), 447,206,000 kg CO2e (Scope 2), and 196,610,000 kg CO2e (Scope 3). This suggests a trend towards increased emissions in recent years, particularly in Scope 1 and 2 categories. Despite these figures, Remgro has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of SBTi reduction targets or documented climate pledges. The company’s emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation, ensuring that the reported figures are solely reflective of Remgro's operations. Overall, while Remgro has made strides in emissions reporting, the lack of defined reduction targets highlights an area for potential improvement in their climate commitments.
