In 2022, Ap7 reported total carbon emissions of approximately 4,100,000,000 kg CO2e, all of which fall under Scope 1 and 2 emissions. This figure represents a slight increase from 2021, where emissions were about 4,000,000,000 kg CO2e. The data indicates a consistent level of emissions over the past few years, with no specific reduction targets or significant achievements disclosed in their climate commitments. For 2023, Ap7 has not provided specific emissions data, but they have reported relative emissions of carbon dioxide equivalents at approximately 1,500 kg CO2e per square metre of Atemp. Additionally, their relative emissions of carbon dioxide equivalents for equities and corporate credits were noted at about 0.002 kg CO2e per SEK. Ap7 has not established any documented reduction targets or initiatives, nor do they appear to be part of any industry-standard climate pledges such as SBTi. The absence of cascaded emissions data suggests that Ap7 operates independently in terms of its carbon reporting and commitments. Overall, while Ap7 has made strides in reporting its emissions, the lack of specific reduction targets or initiatives indicates a need for further action in addressing climate commitments.
