Thurrock Council

In 2020, Thurrock Council reported total carbon emissions of approximately 5,491,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 2,333,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions of approximately 3,158,000 kg CO2e. Notably, there is no available data for Scope 3 emissions, which typically encompass indirect emissions from sources such as purchased goods and services, business travel, and employee commuting.

Thurrock Council's emissions have shown a downward trend over recent years, decreasing from approximately 6,150,000 kg CO2e in 2019 and 7,566,000 kg CO2e in 2018. The council has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of a formal climate pledge or SBTi commitments, indicating a potential area for future development in their climate strategy.

The emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organization, and the council operates independently in its reporting and climate commitments. As part of its ongoing efforts, Thurrock Council is expected to enhance its climate action plans to address the missing Scope 3 data and establish more robust reduction targets moving forward.
