Aquaporin's reported carbon emissions

In 2024, Aquaporin A/S reported total carbon emissions of approximately 292,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 150,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2 (market-based). This marks a reduction from 2023, where emissions were approximately 333,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 151,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2 (market-based). The company has consistently disclosed emissions data for Scope 1 and Scope 2 over the past few years, with 2022 emissions recorded at approximately 285,000 kg CO2e (Scope 1) and about 178,000 kg CO2e (Scope 2, market-based). Aquaporin has not set specific reduction targets under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) nor does it have documented climate pledges. The absence of Scope 3 emissions data indicates a potential area for future reporting and commitment. The company’s emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organization, ensuring that the figures reflect its independent operational impact. Overall, Aquaporin's emissions trajectory shows a commitment to monitoring and potentially reducing its carbon footprint, although further initiatives and targets would enhance its climate strategy.
