In 2023, HD Hyundai Electric generated a total of 3,285 metric tonnes of waste.
Of this amount, 59.97% of HD Hyundai Electric's total waste generated was recovered through methods such as recycling, reuse, or composting, while 39.99% was disposed of through landfilling, incineration, or combustion.
In 2023, HD Hyundai Electric reported a total waste generation of 3,285 metric tonnes, of which 59.97% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting. This moderate level of recovery indicates that HD Hyundai Electric is taking steps toward improving its waste diversion practices, though there is still room to enhance recycling and recovery efforts.
Since 2020, HD Hyundai Electric's total waste generation increased by 12.37%, including a 17.18% increase in 2023, indicating a persistent upward trend that may reflect scaling operations, inefficiencies in resource use, or a lack of effective waste minimization practices.
Over the same period, HD Hyundai Electric's waste recovery rate increased by 2.56%, including a 1.98% rise in 2023, indicating growing emphasis on circularity and improved operational practices for diverting waste from disposal.
Overall, HD Hyundai Electric has seen a consistent rise in waste generation both over the long term and in the year 2023. However, the company has also steadily improved its waste recovery performance, suggesting that it is actively working to offset the environmental consequences of increased production through enhanced circularity efforts.
In 2023, HD Hyundai Electric generated a total of 3,285 metric tonnes of waste.
Of this amount, 12.36% of HD Hyundai Electric's total waste generated of was classified as hazardous waste, characterized by properties such as toxicity, flammability, corrosiveness, or reactivity that may pose risks to human health, ecosystems, or the environment. 87.64% was identified as non-hazardous waste, generally considered less harmful and subject to lighter regulatory controls.
Since 2020, HD Hyundai Electric's total waste generation increased by 12.37%, including a 17.18% rise in 2023, reflecting a persistent upward trend that could be linked to operational growth, inefficient material use, or limited investment in waste prevention systems.
Over the same period, HD Hyundai Electric's hazardous waste share remained stable both over the long term and in 2023, reflecting consistent but static performance in managing hazardous materials.
Overall, HD Hyundai Electric is producing more waste without a change in hazardousness, implying that operational growth is not being accompanied by stronger safeguards against environmental and human health risks.
In 2023, HD Hyundai Electric reported that 406 metric tonnes of its total waste output were classified as hazardous. This represents 12.36% of its overall waste generation.
The company treated this hazardous waste using a combination of methods. A majority (67.74%) was diverted from disposal through recovery-oriented treatments such as recycling or reuse. This suggests that HD Hyundai Electric has established processes to reduce the environmental burden of its most harmful waste streams.
