Suntech America, Inc.'s reported carbon emissions
In 2019, Suntech America, Inc. reported carbon emissions of approximately 45,780 kg CO2e per megawatt (MW) of electricity produced. This figure represents the company's carbon intensity but does not specify the total emissions across Scope 1, 2, or 3, as no detailed emissions data has been disclosed for these scopes. In 2018, the carbon emissions per MW were higher, at about 52,020 kg CO2e, indicating a reduction in carbon intensity over the year. Currently, Suntech America, Inc. has not established any specific reduction targets or commitments under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of disclosed reduction initiatives suggests that the company may be in the early stages of formalising its climate strategy. As a solar energy provider, Suntech operates within an industry that is increasingly focused on sustainability and reducing carbon footprints. However, without specific targets or commitments, the company's long-term climate strategy remains unclear.
