In 2023, Tianqi Lithium reported total carbon emissions of approximately 271,658,760 kg CO2e. This figure includes 125,198,020 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, primarily from stationary combustion, and 146,460,740 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions related to purchased steam. Notably, the company has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data for 2023. In 2022, the total emissions remained the same at about 271,658,760 kg CO2e, with similar contributions from Scope 1 and Scope 2. However, Scope 3 emissions were significantly higher at approximately 260,565,030 kg CO2e, indicating a substantial impact from upstream activities. Tianqi Lithium has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, which may limit its ability to demonstrate a commitment to reducing its carbon footprint. The company’s emissions intensity has shown slight variations, with figures around 5,690 kg CO2e per tonne of production in 2023. Overall, while Tianqi Lithium's emissions data reflects a stable output, the absence of defined reduction initiatives or climate commitments may pose challenges in aligning with industry standards for sustainability and climate action.
