AquaGen AS's reported carbon emissions

AquaGen AS, headquartered in Norway, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures in kg CO2e. The company is a current subsidiary of a larger corporate family, which may influence its climate commitments and reporting practices. Despite the lack of direct emissions data, AquaGen AS is committed to sustainability and reducing its environmental impact. However, no specific reduction targets or initiatives have been documented, including those aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. As a subsidiary, AquaGen AS may inherit climate strategies and commitments from its parent organisation, which could include broader industry standards and practices. The absence of detailed emissions data and reduction targets suggests that AquaGen AS is in the early stages of formalising its climate commitments or may rely on overarching corporate policies from its parent company.
