Worthington Steel's reported carbon emissions
In 2024, Worthington Steel reported total carbon emissions of approximately 95,764,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 96,286,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2. This reflects a slight increase in emissions compared to 2023, where Scope 1 emissions were about 90,961,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions were approximately 103,323,000 kg CO2e. The company has consistently disclosed emissions data for Scope 1 and Scope 2 over the past few years, with 2022 figures showing Scope 1 emissions at about 96,654,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 at approximately 97,703,000 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, Worthington Steel has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments, nor do they participate in recognised frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The company’s emissions intensity for Scope 1 and 2 combined is reported at 20.0 tonnes CO2e per unit of revenue, indicating a focus on improving efficiency relative to their financial performance. Overall, while Worthington Steel has made strides in transparency regarding their emissions, the absence of defined reduction targets suggests an opportunity for further commitment to climate action.
