This figure includes 317,300 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 112,200 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, and significant Scope 3 emissions, with 160,500 kg CO2e attributed to business travel and 628,000 kg CO2e from employee commuting. The combined Scope 1 and 2 emissions totalled about 665,800 kg CO2e. In 2023, the company recorded total emissions of about 670,800 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 247,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 193,400 kg CO2e. Notably, Photon Energy has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data for that year. The emissions data shows a slight increase in total emissions from 2022, where the company reported approximately 562,800 kg CO2e in Scope 1 and 2 emissions, comprising 240,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 169,600 kg CO2e from Scope 2. Despite these figures, Photon Energy has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments, nor have they reported any SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) targets. The company is actively engaged in sustainability practices but lacks detailed public commitments to measurable emissions reductions at this time. Overall, Photon Energy's emissions profile reflects a growing concern for carbon management, yet the absence of formal reduction targets indicates an area for potential improvement in their climate strategy.
