In 2023, Carpenter Technology Corporation reported total carbon emissions of approximately 307 million kg CO2e. This figure comprises 274 million kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions and 33 million kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. Notably, there is no reported data for Scope 3 emissions. Over the past few years, Carpenter Technology has demonstrated a commitment to reducing its carbon footprint. In 2022, the company recorded total emissions of about 286 million kg CO2e, which included 258 million kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 28 million kg CO2e from Scope 2. This indicates a slight increase in total emissions from 2022 to 2023. Despite the absence of specific reduction targets or initiatives, Carpenter Technology is actively engaged in sustainability efforts, as evidenced by its participation in the CDP (Carbon Disclosure Project). However, there are currently no disclosed science-based targets (SBTi) or formal climate pledges. Carpenter Technology's emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation, indicating that the reported figures are solely from its own operations. The company continues to focus on enhancing its sustainability practices within the steel industry, which is known for its significant carbon emissions.
