Nok's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Nok reported total carbon emissions of approximately 2,219,200,000 kg CO2e, with emissions distributed across various scopes: 36,000,000 kg CO2e (Scope 1), 621,000,000 kg CO2e (Scope 2), and 2,192,000,000 kg CO2e (Scope 3). This represents a slight decrease in Scope 1 emissions compared to 2022, where they were about 39,000,000 kg CO2e, while Scope 2 emissions increased from approximately 633,000,000 kg CO2e in 2022. In 2022, Nok's total emissions were approximately 2,137,000,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at 39,000,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at 633,000,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions also significant at 2,137,000,000 kg CO2e. The company has shown a commitment to transparency by disclosing emissions across all three scopes. Despite the detailed emissions reporting, Nok has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, indicating a potential area for improvement in their climate strategy. The absence of documented reduction initiatives suggests that while emissions data is available, a structured approach to reducing their carbon footprint may still be in development. Overall, Nok's emissions data reflects a significant environmental impact, particularly in Scope 3 emissions, which are often the largest contributor to a company's carbon footprint. As the company continues to navigate its climate commitments, establishing clear reduction targets could enhance its sustainability efforts.
