In 2023, Wabtec Corporation reported significant carbon emissions, totalling approximately 131,344,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 132,622,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2 emissions. The company’s Scope 3 emissions were notably high, reaching approximately 52,664,991,000 kg CO2e, with the largest contributions coming from the use of sold products (about 51,188,271,000 kg CO2e) and employee commuting (approximately 46,857,000 kg CO2e). Wabtec's combined Scope 1 and 2 emissions totalled around 228,037,000 kg CO2e. Despite these substantial figures, the company has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing its carbon footprint. This lack of defined climate commitments may reflect broader industry challenges in addressing emissions, particularly within the transportation and manufacturing sectors. As Wabtec continues to navigate its environmental impact, the focus on transparency and accountability in emissions reporting remains crucial for aligning with global climate goals.
