In 2024, Photon Energy reported total carbon emissions of approximately 665,800 kg CO2e, which encompasses Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions. This figure reflects a slight decrease from 2023, where emissions were about 670,800 kg CO2e for the same scopes. In 2022, the company disclosed a more comprehensive emissions profile, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 409,600 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions also at about 409,600 kg CO2e, and significant Scope 3 emissions reaching approximately 49,013,000 kg CO2e. This indicates a substantial reliance on upstream activities contributing to their overall carbon footprint. Photon Energy has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, nor have they reported any science-based targets (SBTi) for emissions reduction. Their climate commitments remain vague, with no documented reduction initiatives available. Overall, while Photon Energy has made strides in tracking and reporting their emissions, further clarity on their long-term climate strategies and reduction commitments would enhance their sustainability profile.
