In 2021, The LOTOS Group reported total carbon emissions of approximately 2,052,426,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 475,388,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2. This reflects a slight decrease in Scope 1 emissions from 2,090,948,000 kg CO2e in 2020, while Scope 2 emissions remained relatively stable, decreasing marginally from 475,560,000 kg CO2e in the same year. The Group has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data, which limits the understanding of its full carbon footprint. However, in previous years, LOTOS reported Scope 3 emissions of approximately 424,910,000 kg CO2e in 2019 and 420,696,000 kg CO2e in 2018, primarily from purchased goods and services. Despite these figures, The LOTOS Group has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, indicating a potential area for improvement in their climate commitments. The absence of Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) reduction targets suggests that the company may need to enhance its climate strategy to align with industry standards. Overall, while LOTOS has made progress in managing its emissions, the lack of comprehensive Scope 3 data and formal reduction commitments highlights the need for a more robust approach to climate action.
