Avfall Sverige AB's reported carbon emissions
Avfall Sverige AB, a Business Association headquartered in SE, has not publicly reported its own carbon emissions data.
However, a reduction target has been identified for the period between 2023 and 2032. This target aims for a 60% reduction in Scope 1 emissions. The initiatives to achieve this include phasing out remaining fossil oil, converting oil-fired plants to use bio-oils, and implementing carbon dioxide capture technologies at Högdalen and Brista. Additionally, there are plans for the gradual conversion to natural refrigerants to replace those with a high greenhouse gas impact. These initiatives are expected to result in a reduction of approximately 60,000,000 kg CO2e from phasing out fossil oil and approximately 320,000,000 kg CO2e from the conversion to refrigerants with lower climate impact.
