Salungano's reported carbon emissions

In 2022, Salungano reported its carbon emissions data, inheriting information from its parent company, Salungano Group Limited. However, specific emissions figures for Scope 1, 2, and 3 were not disclosed. The company provided production emission factors, indicating an electricity intensity of approximately 0.02762 tonnes CO2e and a diesel intensity of about 0.0041 tonnes CO2e. In 2021, the reported electricity intensity was around 0.0242 tonnes CO2e, with a diesel intensity of approximately 0.00385 tonnes CO2e. Despite these figures, Salungano has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, nor does it disclose any initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate frameworks. As a current subsidiary of Salungano Group Limited, the emissions data and performance metrics are cascaded from the parent organisation, which may influence their overall climate strategy. The absence of defined reduction targets highlights a potential area for improvement in their climate commitments.
