In 2022, Romgaz reported total carbon emissions of approximately 404,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 and about 3,930 kg CO2e from Scope 1, resulting in a combined total of approximately 457,700 kg CO2e. This data reflects their operational emissions within Romania. Romgaz has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data, indicating a potential area for future reporting and improvement. The company has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges, which suggests a need for enhanced climate commitments in line with industry standards. Historically, Romgaz's emissions have fluctuated, with 2021 emissions recorded at approximately 593,900 kg CO2e, comprising about 4,040 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 614,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2. The company’s emissions data is not cascaded from a parent organization, indicating that these figures are independently reported. Overall, while Romgaz has made strides in emissions reporting, the absence of reduction targets and comprehensive Scope 3 data highlights opportunities for further climate action and transparency in their sustainability efforts.
