In 2024, Sayona Mining Limited reported total carbon emissions of approximately 35,511,000 kg CO2e, all of which fall under Scope 1 emissions. This figure reflects the company's direct emissions from its operations, specifically related to the production of spodumene concentrate at its North American Lithium (NAL) facility, which has a carbon intensity of about 1,990 kg CO2e per tonne produced. Currently, Sayona Mining has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing its carbon footprint. The absence of Scope 2 and Scope 3 emissions data indicates that the company has not yet addressed indirect emissions from purchased energy or value chain activities. As a mining company headquartered in Australia, Sayona Mining is positioned within an industry increasingly focused on sustainability and climate commitments. However, without defined reduction strategies or pledges, the company may face challenges in aligning with global climate goals.
