Insights into Hydro One's Greenhouse Gas Emissions Pathways
As of 2023, Hydro One 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.
Does Hydro One have a target to reduce the emissions from its operations?
As of 2023, Hydro One has set a target to reduce its operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, specifically those from Scope 1 and Scope 2 sources.
Hydro One's most ambitious operational target is to reduce these emissions by 30% by 2030, compared to a baseline of 335,926.733 Metric Tonnes of CO2 equivalent (mtCO2e) in 2018.
Instead of reducing operational emissions, Hydro One has increased them, with 2023 levels exceeding those of the 2018 baseline, placing the company well behind its reduction target.
