Sunplus Technology Company Limited's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Sunplus Technology Company Limited reported total carbon emissions of approximately 3,459,469 kg CO2e. This figure includes 2,766 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which are direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, and a significant 3,456,703.3 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, representing indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity, steam, heating, and cooling. Additionally, the company reported 2,766 kg CO2e in Scope 3 emissions related to purchased goods and services. Comparatively, in 2022, Sunplus recorded total emissions of about 3,634,229 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 2,413.9 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 3,631,815 kg CO2e. This indicates a reduction in total emissions from 2022 to 2023. Despite these figures, Sunplus has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while the company is actively measuring its emissions, it may not yet have formalised commitments to reduce them in line with industry standards or frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Overall, Sunplus Technology Company Limited's emissions data reflects a significant environmental impact, particularly from Scope 2 emissions, highlighting the need for strategic climate commitments moving forward.
