Despite these figures, TCL has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing its carbon footprint. The absence of defined climate pledges or Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) commitments suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate strategy. As a major player in the electronics industry, TCL's emissions profile reflects the broader challenges faced by manufacturers in reducing greenhouse gas emissions while maintaining production efficiency.
