As of the latest available data, Arabsat does not report any specific carbon emissions figures, indicating a lack of publicly disclosed emissions data. Consequently, there are no recorded Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions figures to analyse. Furthermore, there are no documented reduction targets or climate commitments, such as those aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other industry standards. In the absence of specific emissions data or reduction initiatives, it is unclear how Arabsat is addressing its carbon footprint or contributing to climate action. The company may need to enhance its transparency regarding emissions and climate commitments to align with industry best practices and stakeholder expectations.
Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.
Arabsat is not participating in any of the initiatives that we track. This may change over time as the company engages with new initiatives or updates its commitments. DitchCarbon will update this information as it becomes available.
