Techem's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Techem reported total carbon emissions of approximately 308,231,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 142,473,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which primarily arise from direct operations, and 5,389,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, related to purchased electricity and heat. The company also recorded Scope 3 emissions of about 99,692,000 kg CO2e, which encompass indirect emissions from the supply chain and other activities. Over the past few years, Techem's emissions have shown fluctuations. In 2022, total emissions were approximately 313,760,000 kg CO2e, while in 2021, they were about 314,778,000 kg CO2e. The 2020 emissions were higher at approximately 303,375,000 kg CO2e. Notably, the company has made strides in reducing its Scope 1 and 2 emissions intensity, achieving a reduction to 0.04 t CO2e per million euros in 2023, down from 0.0537 t CO2e in 2022 and 0.0643 t CO2e in 2021. Despite these reductions, Techem has not publicly committed to specific science-based targets or climate pledges. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while the company is actively monitoring and reporting its emissions, it may need to establish more formal commitments to align with industry standards for climate action.
