In 2023, Simcere Pharmaceutical reported total carbon emissions of approximately 3,146,740 kg CO2e. This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 73,490 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of approximately 2,001,370 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions totalling around 1,071,880 kg CO2e. Comparatively, in 2022, the company’s total emissions were about 1,915,640 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at 38,940 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at 1,296,120 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at 580,580 kg CO2e. This indicates a significant increase in emissions from 2022 to 2023. In 2021, Simcere's total emissions were approximately 2,616,670 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions of 32,110 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of 1,522,090 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions of 1,062,470 kg CO2e. The emissions for 2020 were notably higher, at about 67,184,370 kg CO2e, primarily driven by Scope 2 emissions of approximately 62,365,010 kg CO2e and Scope 1 emissions of 4,819,360 kg CO2e. Despite the fluctuations in emissions, Simcere has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. The company does not appear to have cascaded any emissions data from a parent organisation, and all reported figures are derived directly from Simcere Pharmaceutical Group Limited. Overall, while Simcere Pharmaceutical has made strides in emissions reporting, the lack of defined reduction targets suggests an opportunity for enhanced climate action and commitment to sustainability in the pharmaceutical industry.
