Cristal Union's reported carbon emissions

Cristal Union, a sugar industry company headquartered in France, is committed to reducing its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. In 2022, the company reported a total of approximately 1.627 billion kg CO2e across Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions. Specifically for 2022, Cristal Union's Scope 1 emissions were approximately 709.2 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions were around 7.7 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions totalled approximately 920.1 million kg CO2e. It's important to note that some Scope 3 data points, such as purchased goods and services, were missing for this reporting year. Cristal Union has set Science Based Targets (SBTi) to achieve a 27.5% reduction in absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 2030, using a 2019 base year. The company also aims to reduce absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions from purchased goods and services and fuel and energy-related activities by 27.5% within the same timeframe. These targets are considered consistent with reductions needed to keep global warming to Well-below 2°C. The target boundary includes land-related emissions and removals from bioenergy feedstocks. Historical emissions data indicates that in 2016, Scope 1 emissions were approximately 580 million kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions were about 1.03 billion kg CO2e, with no Scope 3 data disclosed for that year. In 2015, Scope 1 emissions were around 540 million kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions were approximately 910 million kg CO2e. Prior to that, for 2014, Scope 1 emissions stood at about 620 million kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at approximately 860 million kg CO2e. Emissions data for 2013 shows Scope 1 at around 560 million kg CO2e and Scope 2 at about 820 million kg CO2e. Cristal Union's emissions data is not cascaded from a parent organisation; it is reported directly by Cristal Union S.C.A.
