Insights into Canadian Solar's Greenhouse Gas Emissions Pathways
As of 2024, Canadian Solar has set greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction targets that cover its operational emissions (Scope 1 and 2), but not its value chain emissions (Scope 3). This means its reduction efforts currently focus on direct and purchased energy emissions.a
Does Canadian Solar have a target to reduce the emissions from its operations?
As of 2024, Canadian Solar has set a target to reduce its operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, specifically those from Scope 1 and Scope 2 sources.a
Canadian Solar's most ambitious operational target is to reduce these emissions by 23% by 2029, compared to a baseline of 0 Metric Tonnes of CO2 equivalent (mtCO2e) per Watt-peak of Electricity from Unspecified Activities in 2024.a
