In 2023, Thiess reported total carbon emissions of approximately 8.1 million tonnes CO2e from Scope 1, 2.8 million tonnes CO2e from Scope 2, and about 4.03 billion tonnes CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. This marked a significant increase in emissions compared to previous years, particularly in Scope 3, which encompasses indirect emissions from the supply chain and product use. In 2022, the company recorded around 10.3 million tonnes CO2e in Scope 1 emissions, 3.2 million tonnes CO2e in Scope 2, and approximately 2.95 billion tonnes CO2e in Scope 3 emissions. The trend indicates a growing challenge in managing emissions, especially in Scope 3, which is often the largest contributor to total emissions for companies in the mining and construction sectors. Thiess has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives under frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). This lack of formal commitments suggests that while the company is aware of its emissions profile, it may need to enhance its climate strategy to align with industry standards and expectations for sustainability. Overall, Thiess's emissions data highlights the importance of addressing both direct and indirect emissions as part of a comprehensive climate commitment strategy.
