As of the latest available data, Weilai's carbon emissions have not been explicitly quantified in terms of total emissions (kg CO2e) for the years 2019 and 2020. However, the company has reported GHG emission intensities related to electricity consumption, with values of approximately 0.000312 kg CO2e/kWh in 2019 and about 0.000294 kg CO2e/kWh in 2020. This indicates a slight improvement in their emissions intensity over the two years. Currently, Weilai has not disclosed specific reduction targets or commitments under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or any formal climate pledges. The absence of defined reduction initiatives suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of establishing comprehensive climate commitments. In the context of the automotive industry, where carbon emissions are a critical concern, Weilai's focus on improving GHG emission intensity is a step towards aligning with broader climate goals. However, further transparency regarding their overall emissions and specific reduction strategies would enhance their commitment to sustainability and climate action.
