In 2023, Tauron Polska Energia reported total carbon emissions of approximately 10,118,969,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 960,233,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2 (market-based), and 15,314,792,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3 emissions. This reflects a comprehensive approach to emissions reporting, covering all three scopes, with significant contributions from upstream activities. In 2022, the company recorded emissions of about 13,773,702,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 1,552,932,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 20,784,008,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3. The 2021 figures were similar, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 13,702,825,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at 1,655,163,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at 19,860,940,000 kg CO2e. Despite the substantial emissions, there are currently no publicly disclosed reduction targets or climate pledges from Tauron Polska Energia. The absence of specific reduction initiatives suggests a need for enhanced climate commitments in line with industry standards. The company operates within a challenging sector, where transitioning to lower-carbon energy sources is critical for meeting global climate goals.
