This initiative is part of a broader commitment to achieve net zero emissions for these scopes by the end of 2025, which includes the consideration of an Ethical Offsetting Program. In 2023, the company reported similar emissions figures, with Scope 1 emissions at about 61,450 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions at approximately 7,976,810 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions reaching around 31,690,930 kg CO2e. The consistency in emissions data highlights the ongoing challenge of reducing carbon footprints in the data centre industry. Kao Data's climate commitments are aligned with industry standards, demonstrating a proactive stance towards sustainability and carbon neutrality. The company's efforts reflect a growing recognition of the importance of addressing climate change within the technology sector.
