This marked a significant increase from 2023, where total emissions were about 5,710,230,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 4,490,174,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 at 1,220,056,000 kg CO2e. Xinyi Solar has disclosed emissions data for all relevant scopes (1, 2, and 3) for 2024, 2023, and 2022, with a consistent focus on reducing its carbon footprint. However, there are currently no specific reduction targets or initiatives outlined in their climate commitments. The company has not cascaded any Science-Based Targets initiative (SBTi) reduction targets from a parent organisation, and no climate pledges have been reported. The emissions intensity metrics indicate that Xinyi Solar is actively monitoring its greenhouse gas emissions per square metre of product, with values reported at 4,570 kg CO2e/m² for 2024 and 4,990 kg CO2e/m² for 2023. These figures reflect the company's ongoing efforts to assess and manage its environmental impact within the solar energy sector.
