Altenso's reported carbon emissions

In 2024, Altenso, headquartered in Germany (DE), has not disclosed specific carbon emissions data, including Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions. The company has not set any reduction targets or made climate pledges, indicating a lack of formal commitments to reduce carbon emissions at this time. The absence of emissions data suggests that Altenso may be in the early stages of developing its climate strategy or reporting framework. As part of the broader industry context, many organisations are increasingly focusing on transparency and accountability regarding their carbon footprints, often aligning with frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) to set ambitious reduction goals. Altenso's emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation, and there are no reported initiatives or commitments that would indicate a proactive approach to climate action at this stage.
