Vulcan Steel's reported carbon emissions

In 2024, Vulcan Steel reported total carbon emissions of approximately 13,865,000 kg CO2e, comprising 6,532,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 7,333,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. This marks a slight increase from 2023, where total emissions were about 13,963,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 6,400,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 at 7,563,000 kg CO2e. In 2022, Vulcan Steel's total emissions were significantly higher at approximately 37,566,000 kg CO2e, which included 4,283,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 4,881,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and a substantial 28,402,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. This indicates a notable reduction in total emissions over the two subsequent years, particularly in Scope 3 emissions, which were not reported in 2023 and 2024. Vulcan Steel has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges available. The emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organization, indicating that Vulcan Steel Limited independently reports its emissions and performance metrics. Overall, Vulcan Steel's emissions profile reflects ongoing challenges in managing carbon outputs, particularly in Scope 3 emissions, while demonstrating a commitment to transparency in its reporting practices.
