For the previous year, 2023, total Scope 1 and 2 emissions were approximately 15.57 billion kg CO2e. In 2022, Scope 1 and 2 emissions totalled approximately 15.07 billion kg CO2e, and in 2021, they were approximately 14.08 billion kg CO2e. Emissions data for 2020 indicates approximately 14.11 billion kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 2. Williams Companies has set significant climate commitments. They have a near-term target to achieve a 56% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2030, measured against a 2005 baseline. Additionally, the company has a long-term aspiration to reach net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2050. More recently, Williams updated its climate strategy in early 2024, setting a goal to decrease intensity-based GHG emissions by 30% from 2018 levels by 2028. This intensity reduction target applies to both Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, measured in metric tons CO2e per thousand MMBtu of gas and liquid throughput. The company's reporting indicates they are on a positive trajectory towards their net-zero aspiration by 2050. Notably, in 2018, the Transco Emissions Reduction Program was projected to reduce nitrogen oxide emissions by an estimated 72 percent system-wide. Scope 3 emissions data is not available for the most recent reporting years, with the company indicating missing data points for purchased goods and services.
