Coal mine emissions under the microscope
*Please note that this report only includes an Excel data file if this is indicated in "What's included" below
Report summary
With ESG at the forefront of most conversations for coal, producers are being forced to tackle greenhouse gasses head-on. Even though the bulk of coal related emissions are associated with consumption of the coal (Scope 3), greenhouse gasses emitted and used in mining (Scope 1 and 2) will be an integral part of future investment decisions. Using our new Emissions Benchmarking Tool (EBT), we evaluate the intensity of greenhouse gasses across mines, companies, countries and coal types.
