In 2023, Avista completed a corporate carbon footprint assessment and publicly disclosed its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions according to the GHG Protocol, covering Scope 1 (direct emissions from owned or controlled sources) and Scope 3 (indirect emissions across the value chain).
However, Avista has not published a category-level breakdown of its Scope 3 emissions, limiting visibility into specific value chain sources.

Compared to 2022, the total operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of Avista increased by 23.45%, suggesting that the company faced challenges in reducing its emissions from its core operations.a
In 2023, the total Scope 1 emissions of Avista were 3,035,164 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e).a
Since 2019, Avista's Scope 1 emissions have increased by 27.99%, reflecting a rising long-term trend in Scope 1 emissions over time.a
Compared to the previous year (2022), Avista's Scope 1 emissions increased by 23.45%, suggesting that the company faced challenges in reducing emissions from its directly owned or controlled operations.a
In 2023, Avista reported 1,291,205 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e) of Scope 3 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, representing indirect emissions across its upstream and downstream value chain.a
The 2023 disclosure of Avista includes a breakdown across 0 of the 15 Scope 3 categories defined by the GHG Protocol, down from 1 in 2022, indicating a decline in reporting granularity and reduced insight into the company's full value chain emissions.a
In 2023, Avista reported total Scope 3 emissions of 1,291,205 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e).a
Since 2019, Avista's Scope 3 emissionshave remained relatively stable, indicating that Avista's emissions have plateaued with no significant change in its value chain footprint.a
Compared to the previous year (2022), Avista's Scope 3 emissions increased by 15.23%, suggesting that the company faced challenges in reducing emissions across its value chain.a
In 2023, Avista reported Scope 1 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of 3,035,164 tCO₂e and total revenues of USD 1,752 millions. This translates into an emissions intensity of 1,732.84 tCO₂e per millions USD.a
In 2023, Avista reported a Scope 1 emissions intensity of 1,732.84 tCO₂e per millions USD. Compared to the peer group median of 313.98, this places the company above its industry benchmark, indicating it is less carbon-efficient than most competitors.a
In 2023, Avista ranked 18 out of 24 companies in its industry peer group, based on Scope 1 emissions intensity (measured in tCO₂e per millions USD).a
Avista is therefore positioned in the mid-range of its industry, neither a clear leader nor a laggard in carbon efficiency.a
