In 2024, Pou Chen reported its Scope 2 emissions using the market-based method and using the location-based method.a
In 2024, Pou Chen reported 60,127.31 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 Pou Chen includes a breakdown across 9 of the 15 Scope 3 categories defined by the GHG Protocol, up from 2 in 2023, reflecting improved emissions accounting practices and greater transparency across the company's value chaina
In 2024, Pou Chen reported total Scope 3 emissions of 60,127.31 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e).a
Approximately 91.55% of these emissions originated from upstream activities such as purchased goods and capital goods, while 8.45% came from downstream activities like product use, distribution, and end-of-life treatment.a
Compared to the previous year (2023), Pou Chen's Scope 3 emissions increased by 221.78%, suggesting that the company faced challenges in reducing emissions across its value chain.a
In 2024, Pou Chen reported emissions for 9 out of the 15 Scope 3 categories defined by the GHG Protocol.a
This partial disclosure allows for some insight into the company's indirect impacts.
In 2024, the largest contributors to Pou Chen's Scope 3 emissions were:a
In 2024, Pou Chen reported Scope 1 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of 71,034.65 tCO₂e and total revenues of USD 8,053 millions. This translates into an emissions intensity of 8.82 tCO₂e per millions USD.a
In 2024, Pou Chen reported a Scope 1 emissions intensity of 8.82 tCO₂e per millions USD. Compared to the peer group median of 4.78, this places the company above its industry benchmark, indicating it is less carbon-efficient than most competitors.a
In 2024, Pou Chen ranked 19 out of 25 companies in its industry peer group, based on Scope 1 emissions intensity (measured in tCO₂e per millions USD).a
Pou Chen is therefore positioned in the mid-range of its industry, neither a clear leader nor a laggard in carbon efficiency.a
In 2024, Pou Chen reported a total carbon footprint of 748,918.86 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e) across Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions. This represents a 15.41% increase compared to 2023, suggesting a rise in emissions across its operations or value chain.a
The largest contributor to Pou Chen's total carbon footprint was Scope 2 emissions, accounting for 82.49% of the company's total carbon footprint, followed by Scope 1 emissions at 9.48%.a
