This marks a slight increase from 2023, where emissions were about 849,500 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 216,900 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at approximately 632,600 kg CO2e (market-based). Over the past few years, Abacus Medicine has shown fluctuations in its emissions, with 2022 emissions recorded at about 915,000 kg CO2e, including 213,700 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 601,300 kg CO2e from Scope 2 (market-based). The company’s emissions have generally increased since 2020, when they reported only 155,200 kg CO2e from Scope 1, with no Scope 2 data available. Despite these figures, Abacus Medicine has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or commitments to frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The emissions data is cascaded from its parent company, Abacus Medicine A/S, reflecting the company's current subsidiary status within the corporate family. Overall, while Abacus Medicine has made strides in reporting its emissions, the lack of defined climate commitments or reduction strategies highlights an area for potential improvement in its sustainability efforts.
