In 2019, Prestolite Electric Incorporated reported its greenhouse gas emissions data, which is cascaded from its parent company. The company has not disclosed specific Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions figures, but it has provided normalised greenhouse gas emissions metrics. For 2019, the normalised GHG emissions were approximately 0.000058 kg CO2e per $1 million in sales and about 0.00237 kg CO2e per hour worked. The data shows a trend of decreasing emissions intensity over the years, with 2018 figures at approximately 0.000066 kg CO2e per $1 million in sales and about 0.00252 kg CO2e per hour worked, and 2017 figures at about 0.000086 kg CO2e per $1 million in sales and approximately 0.00292 kg CO2e per hour worked. This indicates a commitment to improving operational efficiency and reducing emissions relative to revenue and workforce activity. However, Prestolite Electric has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, nor does it appear to participate in initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). The absence of formal commitments suggests that while the company is tracking emissions, it may not yet be fully engaged in comprehensive climate action strategies. As a current subsidiary, the emissions data and climate commitments may reflect broader corporate strategies from its parent organisation, but specific details on these initiatives are not disclosed.
Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.
Prestolite Electric Incorporated is not participating in any of the initiatives that we track. This may change over time as the company engages with new initiatives or updates its commitments. DitchCarbon will update this information as it becomes available.
