MITIGATING CLIMATE CHANGE AND GHG EMISSIONS
To address GHG emissions, our team engaged
with an independent third party to conduct
the 昀椀rst assessment of our carbon footprint
across operations in 2022. This assessment
not only highlighted our current environmental
impact but also served as our baseline for
setting reduction targets. Aligned with our
sustainability commitment, we aim to reduce
GHG emissions 25% by 2030. Facility managers
and the Sustainability Committee oversee the
implementation of reduction initiatives, such
as investing in energy-e昀케cient technologies,
exploring renewable energy sources, and
minimizing resource consumption.
INDEPENDENTLY MEASURE
AND BENCHMARK
We expanded our data collection and
GHG emissions calculation capabilities by
sourcing a third party software, Green Project
Technologies. This software empowers our
management team to make insightful and
impactful decisions related to energy use
and GHG emissions. We also installed a
sub-metering system, Onset data loggers,
to capture real-time data and analytics
on energy usage at our facilities. The
data insights allow Accupac to target and
optimize energy-saving projects. Ongoing
measurement of our energy usage is a key
pillar of our decarbonization plan.
In 2024, Accupac reported a total of 6,042
MT CO2e of scope 1 and 2 emissions—a slight
increase compared to the 2023 reporting
period. We realized a 9% reduction in our GHG
emissions intensity (MT CO2e/ million units
produced) compared to our 2022 baseline. Our
emissions sources include mobile combustion
(gasoline and diesel), stationary combustion
(natural gas and propane), and purchased
electricity. The emissions mix was composed of
13% purchased electricity and 15% stationary
combustion. For more detailed information
see the data appendix. GHG emissions
are calculated using the GHG Protocol’s
Corporate Standard, using the operational
control approach.
