Manawa Energy Limited's reported carbon emissions

In 2024, Manawa Energy Limited reported total carbon emissions of approximately 2,503,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 869,000 kg CO2e, primarily from mobile combustion (approximately 644,000 kg CO2e) and stationary combustion (about 213,000 kg CO2e). Scope 2 emissions totalled around 677,000 kg CO2e, predominantly from purchased electricity (approximately 656,000 kg CO2e). Additionally, Scope 3 emissions were reported at about 957,000 kg CO2e, with significant contributions from business travel (approximately 498,000 kg CO2e) and fuel and energy-related activities (around 441,000 kg CO2e). In 2022, the company’s emissions were significantly higher, with total emissions reaching approximately 5,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 400,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 200,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3. This indicates a notable reduction in emissions from 2022 to 2024. Despite these figures, Manawa Energy Limited has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented climate pledges or SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets suggests that while the company is tracking emissions, it may not yet have formalised its long-term climate commitments.
