Taiwan Sugar Corporation's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Taiwan Sugar Corporation reported total carbon emissions of approximately 128,449,812 kg CO2e, comprising 61,839,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 61,839,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. Scope 3 emissions accounted for about 128,449,812 kg CO2e, with significant contributions from purchased goods and services. Over the years, the company has shown fluctuations in its emissions. For instance, in 2020, total emissions were approximately 308,351,920 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 1,086,070 kg CO2e and Scope 2 at 307,265,840 kg CO2e. In 2021, emissions decreased to about 232,262,601.6 kg CO2e, indicating a potential commitment to reducing its carbon footprint. Despite these figures, Taiwan Sugar Corporation has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while the company is aware of its emissions, it may not have formalised commitments to reduce them in line with global climate goals. Overall, Taiwan Sugar Corporation's emissions data reflects a complex landscape of carbon output, with a need for clearer climate commitments and reduction strategies to align with industry standards and expectations.
