In 2023, Doosan reported total carbon emissions of approximately 75,152,000 kg CO2e, comprising 24,186,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 50,966,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2. Additionally, their Scope 3 emissions included 70,660,000 kg CO2e from purchased goods and services, 9,621,000 kg CO2e from upstream transportation and distribution, and 1,497,000 kg CO2e from employee commuting, among other categories. Comparatively, in 2022, Doosan's total emissions were about 80,720,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 27,728,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 52,992,000 kg CO2e. This indicates a reduction in total emissions from 2022 to 2023. Doosan has disclosed emissions data across all three scopes, demonstrating transparency in their climate impact. However, there are currently no specific reduction targets or initiatives outlined in their commitments, such as Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) targets or documented reduction initiatives. This lack of formal targets suggests an opportunity for Doosan to enhance its climate strategy and commitments moving forward.
