In 2023, Scala Data Centers reported total carbon emissions of approximately 118,974,380 kg CO2e, comprising 2,040,530 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 115,974,850 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. Notably, there were no reported emissions under Scope 2. This represents a significant increase in emissions compared to 2022, where total emissions were about 7,078,480 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 3,009,660 kg CO2e and Scope 3 emissions at 70,781,480 kg CO2e. Over the past few years, Scala Data Centers has shown a trend of increasing emissions, with 2021 figures at approximately 62,042,010 kg CO2e and 1,960,320 kg CO2e for Scope 1. In 2020, the company reported total emissions of about 4,218,300 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 488,800 kg CO2e. Despite the rising emissions, Scala Data Centers has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives, nor does it appear to have cascaded any targets from parent organisations or industry initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of a climate pledge further indicates a lack of formal commitments to reduce carbon emissions at this time. Overall, Scala Data Centers' emissions data highlights the need for enhanced climate commitments and strategies to address their carbon footprint effectively.
