  • 1) Scope 2 market-based emissions calculation based on CDP's global RE100 operating framework.
  • 2) Scope 3 calculation scope: Categories 1-8, 10, 11, 13, and 15.
  • 3) Recalculated based on the Separate Financial Statement Revenue
  • 4) Shipment volume based on the total of Ulsan, Pyeongtaek, and G-Hub. (Due to the nature of our business, where sales revenue per unit is highly volatile depending on oil prices/exchange rates, we also manage a physical throughput unit based on product shipments to compensate)
  • 5) 2023 emissions recalculated due to data calculation error.
  • 6) Excluding REC and Green Premium values (as they represent renewable energy certification rather than actual electricity).
  • 7) 2022 and 2023 data restated due to data summation error.
  • 8) Renewable electricity usage rate = (Solar power + REC + Green Premium) / Total electricity consumption
  • 9) Recycling Rate (ZWTL) = Total Recycled Quantity / (Total Waste Generated Designated Waste Incinerated & Landfilled) * 100
  • 10) Retabulation of 2022 and 2023 Figures Due to Change in Calculation Basis
