In 2022, Nexa Resources Perú S.A.A. reported total carbon emissions of approximately 272,282.49 kg CO2e. This figure reflects the company's overall emissions without specific breakdowns into Scope 1, 2, or 3 categories for that year. In 2021, the company disclosed emissions of 247,218,640 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 7,780,930 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 47,570,630 kg CO2e for Scope 3, indicating a comprehensive approach to tracking its carbon footprint across various scopes. Despite the significant emissions reported, there are currently no publicly stated reduction targets or climate pledges from Nexa Resources. The absence of documented reduction initiatives suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate commitments. As the industry increasingly prioritises sustainability, Nexa Resources will likely need to develop and communicate clear strategies to address its carbon emissions and align with global climate goals.
