Vivint Solar, Inc.'s reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Sunrun Inc.

Vivint Solar, Inc., headquartered in the US, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data for the most recent year, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. The company is a current subsidiary of Sunrun Inc., which may influence its climate commitments and performance metrics. As part of its climate strategy, Vivint Solar inherits initiatives and targets from its parent company, Sunrun Inc. This includes commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and other climate-related pledges. However, specific reduction targets or achievements have not been disclosed for Vivint Solar itself. The lack of direct emissions data suggests that Vivint Solar is still in the process of establishing its own climate commitments or may rely on the broader strategies set forth by Sunrun Inc. As the renewable energy sector continues to evolve, it is crucial for companies like Vivint Solar to develop and communicate their own emissions reduction strategies to align with industry standards and expectations.
