Hindustan Aeronautics's reported carbon emissions
In 2024, Hindustan Aeronautics reported total carbon emissions of approximately 48,876,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 89,066,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2. This represents a slight increase in Scope 1 emissions compared to 2023, where emissions were approximately 46,496,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 90,615,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2. Over the past few years, the company has shown fluctuations in its emissions, with 2022 figures indicating approximately 46,838,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 105,578,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2. In 2021, emissions were approximately 33,851,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 105,047,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2. Despite these emissions figures, Hindustan Aeronautics has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of a formal climate commitment suggests that while the company is tracking its emissions, it may not yet have established a comprehensive strategy for significant reductions. Overall, Hindustan Aeronautics is actively monitoring its carbon footprint, but further commitments and reduction strategies will be essential for aligning with global climate goals.
