In 2023, Allkem reported total carbon emissions of approximately 135,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 135,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, resulting in a combined total of about 134,700,000 kg CO2e for both scopes. This marks a significant increase from 2022, where emissions were approximately 119,700,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 1,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, leading to a total of around 120,708,000 kg CO2e for these scopes. Notably, in 2022, Allkem also reported Scope 3 emissions of about 82,000,000 kg CO2e. Despite the increase in emissions, Allkem has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The company has not committed to any science-based targets or climate pledges, indicating a potential area for future development in their sustainability strategy. Allkem's operations have shown an emissions intensity of approximately 3,350 kg CO2e per tonne of lithium carbonate equivalent (LCE) produced in 2023, reflecting their ongoing efforts to monitor and manage emissions within their operational framework. As the company continues to grow, addressing carbon emissions and establishing clear reduction commitments will be crucial for aligning with global climate goals.
