In 2024, Aeb reported total carbon emissions of approximately 3,066,960 kg CO2e. This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 343,310 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of approximately 36,590 kg CO2e (market-based), and a significant contribution from Scope 3 emissions, which totalled around 2,687,060 kg CO2e. The Scope 3 emissions breakdown reveals major sources such as purchased goods and services (about 1,555,300 kg CO2e) and business travel (approximately 466,970 kg CO2e). Comparatively, in 2021, Aeb's total emissions were about 3,956,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 1,032,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions around 181,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions totalling about 2,770,000 kg CO2e. This indicates a reduction in total emissions of about 889,040 kg CO2e from 2021 to 2024. Aeb has not specified any formal reduction targets or commitments through initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of documented reduction initiatives suggests that while Aeb is actively measuring its emissions, it may not yet have established formalised targets for future reductions. Overall, Aeb's emissions data reflects a commitment to transparency in reporting, with a clear understanding of its emissions across all scopes, although further steps may be needed to set and achieve specific reduction goals.

Aeb's Scope 3 emissions, which decreased by 3% last year and increased by approximately 114% since 2019, demonstrating supply chain emissions tracking. The vast majority of their carbon footprint comes from suppliers and value chain emissions, representing the vast majority of total emissions under the GHG Protocol, with "Purchased Goods and Services" being the largest emissions source at 58% of Scope 3 emissions.
Climate goals typically focus on 2030 interim targets and 2050 net-zero commitments, aligned with global frameworks like the Paris Agreement and Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) to ensure alignment with global climate goals.
Aeb has not publicly committed to specific 2030 or 2050 climate goals through the major frameworks we track. Companies often set interim 2030 targets and long-term 2050 net-zero goals to demonstrate measurable progress toward decarbonization.
