Thuraya Telecommunications Company's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Al Yah Satellite Communication Company PJSC

Thuraya Telecommunications Company, headquartered in the United Arab Emirates (AE), currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year. The company is a current subsidiary of Al Yah Satellite Communication Company PJSC, which may influence its sustainability practices and reporting. As of now, Thuraya has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives related to carbon emissions. The absence of documented reduction initiatives or climate pledges suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. It is important to note that emissions data may be inherited from its parent company, Al Yah Satellite Communication Company PJSC, which operates within the telecommunications sector. This sector is increasingly focusing on sustainability and reducing carbon footprints, but specific figures or commitments from Thuraya have not been disclosed. In summary, while Thuraya Telecommunications Company is part of a larger corporate family that may have sustainability initiatives, it currently lacks specific emissions data and defined climate commitments.
