Compared to 2023, the total operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of Matson decreased by 5.51%, showing that the company has made progress in taking action to reduce the climate impact of its operations.a
In 2024, the total Scope 1 emissions of Matson were 1,040,900 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e).a
Since 2019, Matson's Scope 1 emissions have decreased by 10.7%, reflecting a declining long-term trend in Scope 1 emissions over time.ac
Compared to the previous year (2023), Matson's Scope 1 emissions decreased by 5.48%, highlighting the company's efforts to lower direct emissions from assets it owns or controls.a
In 2024, Matson reported Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of 16,200 tCO₂e using the location-based method.a
Compared to the previous year (2023), Matson's Scope 2 emissions (Location-Based) have remained relatively stable, indicating that Matson's emissions have plateaued with no significant change in its energy consumption footprint.a
In 2024, Matson reported its Scope 2 emissions using the location-based method.a
In 2024, Matson reported 1,236,900 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 2024 disclosure of Matson includes a breakdown across 4 of the 15 Scope 3 categories defined by the GHG Protocol, matching the level of disclosure in 2023, demonstrating consistent Scope 3 emissions reporting coverage year over year.a
In 2024, Matson reported total Scope 3 emissions of 1,236,900 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e).a
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.a
Compared to the previous year (2023), Matson's Scope 3 emissions remained relatively stable, indicating that Matson's emissions have plateaued with no significant change in its value chain footprint.a
In 2024, Matson reported emissions for 4 out of the 15 Scope 3 categories defined by the GHG Protocol.a
The limited disclosure restricts visibility into specific emission sources across the company's value chain.
In 2024, the largest contributors to Matson's Scope 3 emissions were:a
In 2024, Matson reported Scope 1 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of 1,040,900 tCO₂e and total revenues of USD 3,422 millions. This translates into an emissions intensity of 304.2 tCO₂e per millions USD.a
In 2024, Matson reported a Scope 1 emissions intensity of 304.2 tCO₂e per millions USD. Compared to the peer group median of 181.46, this places the company above its industry benchmark, indicating it is less carbon-efficient than most competitors.a
In 2024, Matson ranked 16 out of 25 companies in its industry peer group, based on Scope 1 emissions intensity (measured in tCO₂e per millions USD).a
Matson is therefore positioned in the mid-range of its industry, neither a clear leader nor a laggard in carbon efficiency.a
In 2024, Matson reported a total carbon footprint of 2,294,000 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e) across Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions. This represents a 4.71% decrease compared to 2023, indicating progress in reducing its overall greenhouse gas output.a
The largest contributor to Matson's total carbon footprint was Scope 3 emissions, accounting for 53.92% of the company's total carbon footprint, followed by Scope 1 emissions at 45.37%.a
