Vardhman Special Steels's reported carbon emissions

In 2024, Vardhman Special Steels reported total carbon emissions of approximately 166,333,000 kg CO2e, comprising 36,774,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 129,559,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2. This data reflects a consistent emission pattern, as the company reported similar figures in 2023, with total emissions also around 166,333,000 kg CO2e, maintaining the same Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions. The company has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data, indicating a potential area for future reporting and improvement. Vardhman Special Steels has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, which may limit its ability to demonstrate a proactive approach to climate commitments. The emissions intensity for 2024 was reported at about 730 kg CO2e per tonne of steel produced, while the previous year showed a slightly higher intensity of approximately 830 kg CO2e per tonne. This suggests a marginal improvement in emissions efficiency in steel production. Vardhman Special Steels operates independently without cascading emissions data from a parent company, indicating that its reported figures are solely based on its own operations. As the steel industry faces increasing scrutiny regarding carbon emissions, Vardhman Special Steels may benefit from establishing clear climate commitments and reduction targets to enhance its sustainability profile.
