In 2023, the total operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of Hawaiian Electric Industries amounted to 4,422,902 metric tons of CO2 equivalent. This figure includes both direct emissions from owned or controlled sources (Scope 1) and indirect emissions from purchased energy (Scope 2).
Compared to 2022, the total operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of Hawaiian Electric Industries increased by 7.5%, suggesting that the company faced challenges in reducing its emissions from its core operations.
In 2023, the total Scope 1 emissions of Hawaiian Electric Industries were 4,418,816 metric tons of COâ‚‚ equivalent (tCOâ‚‚e).
Since 2018, Hawaiian Electric Industries's Scope 1 emissions have decreased by 32.99%, reflecting a declining long-term trend in Scope 1 emissions over time.
Compared to the previous year (2022), Hawaiian Electric Industries's Scope 1 emissions increased by 7.51%, suggesting that the company faced challenges in reducing emissions from its directly owned or controlled operations.
In 2023, Hawaiian Electric Industries reported Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of 4,086 tCOâ‚‚e without specifying the calculation method.
Compared to the previous year (2022), Hawaiian Electric Industries's Scope 2 emissions (Unspecified Calculation Method) have remained relatively stable, indicating that Hawaiian Electric Industries 's emissions have plateaued with no significant change in its energy consumption footprint.
In 2023, Hawaiian Electric Industries reported its Scope 2 emissions using an unspecified methodology.
In 2023, Hawaiian Electric Industries reported 2,231,650 metric tons of COâ‚‚ equivalent (tCOâ‚‚e) of Scope 3 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, representing indirect emissions across its upstream and downstream value chain.
The 2023 disclosure of Hawaiian Electric Industries includes a breakdown across 3 of the 15 Scope 3 categories defined by the GHG Protocol, matching the level of disclosure in 2022, demonstrating consistent Scope 3 emissions reporting coverage year over year.
In 2023, Hawaiian Electric Industries reported total Scope 3 emissions of 2,231,650 metric tons of COâ‚‚ equivalent (tCOâ‚‚e).
Approximately 100% of these emissions originated from upstream activities such as purchased goods and capital goods, while 0% came from downstream activities like product use, distribution, and end-of-life treatment.
Compared to the previous year (2022), Hawaiian Electric Industries's Scope 3 emissions decreased by 20.14%, highlighting the company's efforts to lower indirect emissions from its value chain.
In 2023, Hawaiian Electric Industries reported emissions for 3 out of the 15 Scope 3 categories defined by the GHG Protocol.
The limited disclosure restricts visibility into specific emission sources across the company's value chain.
In 2023, the largest contributors to Hawaiian Electric Industries's Scope 3 emissions were:
In 2023, Hawaiian Electric Industries reported a total carbon footprint of 6,654,552 metric tons of COâ‚‚ equivalent (tCOâ‚‚e) across Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions. This represents a 3.68% decrease compared to 2022, indicating progress in reducing its overall greenhouse gas output.
The largest contributor to Hawaiian Electric Industries's total carbon footprint was Scope 1 emissions, accounting for 66.4% of the company's total carbon footprint, followed by Scope 3 emissions at 33.54%.
