In 2023, Spire Inc. reported total carbon emissions of approximately 349,991,000 kg CO2e, comprising 349,991,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which include direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, and 29,638,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, related to indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity. The company also recorded Scope 3 emissions of about 41,973,000 kg CO2e. In 2022, Spire's emissions were slightly lower, with total emissions of approximately 367,234,000 kg CO2e, including 367,234,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 35,200,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, alongside 43,800,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3. The trend shows a reduction in Scope 1 emissions from 385,100,000 kg CO2e in 2021 to 349,991,000 kg CO2e in 2023, indicating a commitment to lowering their carbon footprint. Despite these figures, Spire has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at achieving significant emissions reductions. The absence of defined climate pledges or SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets suggests that while the company is tracking emissions, it may not yet have formalised its long-term climate commitments. Overall, Spire Inc. is actively monitoring its emissions across all scopes, but further clarity on reduction strategies and commitments would enhance its sustainability profile.
