The company has shown a commitment to transparency in its emissions reporting, disclosing data for all three scopes (1, 2, and 3) in recent years. However, there are currently no specific reduction targets or initiatives outlined in their climate commitments. This lack of defined reduction strategies may reflect a broader industry context where many companies are still developing comprehensive climate action plans. Overall, Tongwei's emissions data highlights the significant carbon footprint associated with its operations, particularly in Scope 3, which encompasses indirect emissions from the supply chain and product use. As the company continues to grow, addressing these emissions will be crucial for aligning with global climate goals.
