The company is a current subsidiary of BorgWarner Inc., which may influence its climate commitments and reporting practices. While Akasol AG has not set its own reduction targets or disclosed specific emissions figures, it is important to note that its climate initiatives and commitments may be aligned with those of BorgWarner Inc. This includes potential targets set under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and participation in the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP).
