Vhi's reported carbon emissions
In 2022, Vhi reported total carbon emissions of approximately 261,000,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 845,690 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which are direct emissions from owned or controlled sources. Scope 2 emissions, representing indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity, steam, heating, and cooling, totalled about 1,617,820 kg CO2e, with a market-based total of approximately 1,044,860 kg CO2e. The most significant portion of their emissions comes from Scope 3, which accounted for about 259,443,230 kg CO2e, reflecting the emissions from the entire value chain. Currently, Vhi has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or any other climate pledges. This lack of defined targets suggests that while Vhi is aware of its carbon footprint, it may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate commitments. As the company continues to assess its emissions, it may look to establish more concrete strategies for reducing its overall impact on the environment.
