Valin Steel's reported carbon emissions

In 2016, Valin Steel reported a CO2 intensity of approximately 1,890 kg CO2e per tonne of crude steel cast, reflecting its emissions performance in the iron and steel sector. This figure indicates a slight increase from 2015, where the CO2 intensity was about 1,850 kg CO2e per tonne. The company has not disclosed specific Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions data, nor has it set any formal reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Valin Steel's emissions data is inherited from its parent company, Hunan Valin Steel Co., Ltd., and does not include any cascaded targets or commitments from other corporate family members. The company has not publicly committed to any climate pledges or reduction initiatives, which places it in a challenging position within the industry context, where many peers are actively pursuing sustainability goals. Overall, while Valin Steel's emissions intensity figures provide some insight into its operational impact, the lack of specific reduction targets or commitments highlights an area for potential improvement in its climate strategy.
