In 2023, PSO reported total carbon emissions of approximately 6,400,000 kg CO2e. This figure represents the organisation's overall emissions but does not specify the breakdown into Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions, as no detailed data is available. Currently, PSO has not established any formal reduction targets or initiatives, nor have they committed to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). This lack of specific climate commitments indicates that PSO may be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. As the global focus on sustainability intensifies, it is crucial for organisations like PSO to consider setting measurable targets to reduce their carbon footprint and align with industry standards for climate action.
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.
PSO 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.
