Worldpay's reported carbon emissions

In 2022, Worldpay reported total carbon emissions of approximately 13,914,100 kg CO2e. This figure encompasses emissions across all scopes, with Scope 1 emissions at 980,390 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions at 1,537,880 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions significantly higher at 11,395,830 kg CO2e. Notably, the majority of Scope 3 emissions stem from business travel, accounting for about 8,546,810 kg CO2e, followed by employee commute at approximately 2,039,610 kg CO2e. Despite the substantial emissions, Worldpay has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. There are no commitments reported under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of defined reduction strategies suggests a need for enhanced climate action within the organisation. Worldpay's emissions data is not cascaded from any parent company, indicating that these figures are independently reported. As a leading player in the payment processing industry, Worldpay's climate commitments and emissions management will be crucial in aligning with global sustainability goals.
