Renuka Sugars's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Renuka Sugars reported total carbon emissions of approximately 434,989,700 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 275,695,750 kg CO2e for Scope 2, alongside approximately 1,254,830 kg CO2e for Scope 3 emissions. This reflects a significant increase in Scope 2 emissions compared to the previous year, where they were about 126,352,930 kg CO2e in 2022. Looking ahead to 2024, the company anticipates a further rise in emissions, with Scope 1 emissions projected at approximately 1,395,711,400 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at about 371,861,210 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at around 890,580 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, Renuka Sugars has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The company’s emissions intensity for Scope 1 and Scope 2 combined is reported at 990.0 metric tons CO2e per metric ton of sugar in 2023, which is a slight improvement from 880.0 metric tons CO2e per metric ton of sugar projected for 2024. Overall, while Renuka Sugars has made strides in emissions reporting, the lack of defined reduction targets indicates a need for more robust climate commitments in line with industry standards.
