This figure includes 106,477,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 1,214,913,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions (market-based), and 576,795,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. The company has shown a commitment to reducing its carbon footprint, although specific reduction targets or initiatives have not been disclosed. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while Samsung Electro Mechanics is aware of its emissions, it may not yet have formalised strategies to achieve significant reductions. Historically, the company has reported emissions data across various scopes, with notable figures from previous years, such as 1,654,250,000 kg CO2e in 2021 and 1,621,668,000 kg CO2e in 2022. The emissions data indicates a trend of increasing total emissions over the years, highlighting the need for effective climate action strategies. Overall, Samsung Electro Mechanics is positioned within an industry that is increasingly focused on sustainability and carbon reduction, yet it currently lacks specific, publicly available commitments to reduce its emissions.
