GHG Inventory Data

Breakdown of Scope 3 Emissions

Major categories such as Purchased Goods and Services, Capital Goods, and Fuel & Energy-Related Activities saw significant reductions in emissions, reflecting Eastman's focus on sustainable procurement and operational efficiencies.

Strategies for Emission Reduction

Elimination of Coal Usage

Eastman has successfully transitioned away from coal consumption by adopting bio briquettes, a renewable energy alternative derived from agricultural waste. This shift not only reduces GHG emissions but also aligns with our circular economy principles by utilizing local resources.

Energy Efficiency Improvements Through Energy Audits

Comprehensive energy audits have been conducted to identify inefficiencies and optimize energy use across our operations. As a result:

We have implemented measures such as advanced insulation, energy-efficient machinery, and optimized production scheduling.
These efforts have contributed to significant energy savings and reductions in Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions.

Adoption of Renewable Energy

We have prioritized increasing renewable energy usage across our facilities:

Tier 2 Facilities: Achieving 70% renewable energy adoption through strategic Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) from 2024.
Tier 1 Facilities: Securing 30% renewable energy through similar PPAs from 2024. These efforts have contributed to significant energy savings and reductions in Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions.

These measures have significantly decreased Scope 2 emissions and demonstrate our commitment to cleaner energy solutions.

Looking Ahead

Eastman Exports remains steadfast in its commitment to sustainability and will continue pursuing innovative strategies to further reduce emissions. We aim to achieve our science-based targets by fostering collaboration across the supply chain and investing in sustainable technologies.
