In 2023, Shanghai Electric reported total emissions of approximately 330,073,140 kg CO2e, comprising 80,450,610 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 249,622,530 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. The company has shown a commitment to reducing its carbon footprint, with a notable decrease in emissions from previous years. For instance, in 2022, total emissions were about 359,189,960 kg CO2e, indicating a reduction in emissions over the year. Shanghai Electric has disclosed emissions data for Scopes 1 and 2, but there are no specific reduction targets or initiatives outlined in their current commitments. The company has not provided information on Scope 3 emissions or any formal climate pledges, which places it in a context where many industry peers are increasingly setting ambitious climate goals. Overall, while Shanghai Electric has made strides in reducing its emissions, further transparency regarding its climate commitments and future reduction targets would enhance its sustainability profile.
