Baywa's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Baywa reported total carbon emissions of approximately 36,438,523,000 kg CO2e, with significant contributions from Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions. Specifically, Scope 1 emissions were about 112,578,000 kg CO2e, primarily from stationary combustion, while Scope 2 emissions totalled around 1,446,000 kg CO2e. The most substantial impact came from Scope 3 emissions, which reached approximately 36,438,523,000 kg CO2e, indicating a heavy reliance on upstream activities, particularly in purchased goods and services. Over the years, Baywa has shown fluctuations in its emissions, with a notable decrease from about 102,360,000 kg CO2e in 2017 to approximately 4,678,000 kg CO2e in 2020. However, emissions surged again in subsequent years, highlighting the challenges in maintaining consistent reductions. Despite these figures, Baywa has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or climate pledges. This context suggests that while Baywa is actively monitoring its emissions, further commitments may be necessary to align with industry standards for climate action.
