In 2024, Allkem reported total carbon emissions of approximately 387,193,000 kg CO2e, comprising 238,628,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 148,565,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2. This data reflects a significant commitment to transparency in emissions reporting, although no Scope 3 emissions data was disclosed. In 2023, the company disclosed combined Scope 1 and 2 emissions of about 134,700,000 kg CO2e. The previous year, 2022, saw total emissions of approximately 120,708,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 82,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3, indicating a growing awareness of the importance of comprehensive emissions tracking. Allkem's emissions data is cascaded from its parent company, Allkem Pty Ltd, and is part of a broader corporate family relationship with Arcadium Lithium plc, which influences its sustainability initiatives. However, there are currently no specific reduction targets or climate pledges documented, suggesting that while Allkem is actively reporting its emissions, it may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate commitments. Overall, Allkem's emissions reporting highlights its operational impact and the need for ongoing efforts to enhance sustainability practices within the lithium industry.
