The absence of Scope 3 data for 2023 suggests a focus on direct and indirect emissions from energy use. Alkegen has set ambitious targets to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions. Starting in 2022, the company aims to achieve a 40% reduction in both Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 2030, using a 2020 baseline. This commitment underscores Alkegen's dedication to climate action and aligns with industry standards for sustainability. It is important to note that Alkegen's emissions data is cascaded from its parent company, Unifrax I LLC, reflecting a corporate family relationship that influences its environmental performance metrics.
