Acacia Research's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Acacia Research reported carbon emissions of approximately 48,800 kg CO2e, all from Scope 2 emissions related to purchased electricity. This marks a decrease from 2022, when the company recorded about 52,500 kg CO2e in Scope 2 emissions and an additional 67,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. Despite these figures, Acacia Research has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives, nor do they participate in the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of defined climate commitments suggests a need for further action in addressing their carbon footprint. The emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation, indicating that Acacia Research is independently reporting its environmental impact. As the company continues to grow, it may benefit from establishing clear climate goals to enhance its sustainability profile.
