As part of Maclean’s commitment to responsible environmental practices and
ISO 14001:2015, we have measuring and monitoring carbon footprint emissions.
The classification of emissions into Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 is defined under the internationally recognised Greenhouse Gas Protocol, developed by the World Resources Institute and the World Business Council for Sustainable Development.
Scope 1 emissions are direct greenhouse gas emissions from sources that are owned or controlled by the organisation. These include emissions from fuel combustion in company-owned vehicles, generators, or equipment that use fossil fuels such as petrol or diesel.
Scope 2 emissions refer to indirect greenhouse gas emissions from the generation of purchased electricity, steam, heating, or cooling consumed by the organisation. Although the emissions occur at the powerplant where electricity is generated, they are attributed to the organisation because the electricity is used in its operations.
Scope 3 emissions include all other indirect emissions that occur within an organisation’s value chain. These may include emissions from business travel, employee commuting, purchased goods and services, waste disposal, water consumption, and transportation activities that are not directly controlled by the organisation. Carbon emissions related to water usage may occur indirectly during water treatment, pumping, distribution, and wastewater treatment processes, which take place outside the organisation’s direct operational control.
Maclean began monitoring Scope 2 emissions by recording the total electricity consumption at headquarters. The electricity usage was converted into estimated carbon emissions using the LCOS SME Carbon Footprint Calculator developed by the Malaysian Green Technology and Climate Change Corporation, which applies Malaysia’s electricity grid emission factors.
The total electricity consumption at our headquarters in the year 2025 was 78,231 kWh. Using the emission factor applied in the LCOS calculator, the estimated carbon emissions from electricity consumption are 60,550 kgCO2e. This is equivalent to approximately 60.6 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent (tCO₂e).
By monitoring this emission, we aim to identify opportunities to improve energy efficiency and reduce our environmental impact. This initiative reflects our long-term commitment to responsible environmental management and continuous improvement under our sustainability journey.
