China National Petroleum Corp's reported carbon emissions
In 2024, China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC) reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,870,000,000 kg CO2e, encompassing Scope 1 and 2 emissions. This figure reflects a slight increase from the previous year's emissions of about 1,880,000,000 kg CO2e in 2023. The company has shown a consistent trend in its emissions, with 2022 emissions recorded at approximately 1,800,000,000 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, CNPC has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing its carbon footprint. There are no reported commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other formal climate pledges. The absence of detailed climate strategies or reduction targets suggests that CNPC may be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive approach to climate change mitigation. Overall, while CNPC's emissions data indicates a significant operational scale, the lack of clear reduction commitments highlights a potential area for improvement in aligning with global climate goals.
