Iea
The International Energy Agency (IEA), headquartered in France, is a prominent intergovernmental organisation established in 1974. It plays a crucial role in the global energy sector, focusing on energy security, economic development, and environmental sustainability. The IEA operates extensively across Europe, North America, and Asia, providing valuable insights and data to member countries and beyond. Renowned for its comprehensive energy statistics and policy recommendations, the IEA offers unique services such as the World Energy Outlook and the Energy Technology Perspectives. These resources are instrumental in guiding nations towards sustainable energy practices. With a strong market position, the IEA has achieved notable milestones, including its pivotal role in shaping international energy policies and fostering collaboration among member states.

Iea's reported carbon emissions
In 2022, the International Energy Agency (IEA) reported a global CO2 emissions intensity of approximately 0.35 kg CO2e per kWh of electricity used. This figure reflects the ongoing challenges in reducing carbon emissions within the energy sector. The IEA has not disclosed specific Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions data, nor have they set formal reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Over the previous years, the emissions intensity has shown slight fluctuations, with values of about 0.358 kg CO2e per kWh in 2021, 0.367 kg CO2e per kWh in 2020, and 0.37 kg CO2e per kWh in 2019. Despite these figures, the IEA has not established any documented reduction targets or climate pledges, indicating a need for more robust commitments to address climate change effectively. As the IEA operates independently and does not inherit emissions data from a parent organization, all reported figures are derived directly from their own assessments. The agency's focus remains on providing critical insights and data to inform global energy policies and climate strategies.

Reduction initiatives & disclosure networks
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.
Iea 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.
