Westinghouse's reported carbon emissions

Westinghouse, headquartered in the US, currently does not report any specific carbon emissions data, as there are no available figures for kg CO2e emissions. Additionally, the company has not established any documented reduction targets or commitments to climate initiatives, such as those outlined by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other industry standards. As a result, Westinghouse's climate commitments and strategies remain unclear, with no significant reduction initiatives or pledges disclosed. The absence of emissions data and reduction targets suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy.
