Battelle's reported carbon emissions

Battelle, an organisation in the fabricated metal products industry headquartered in the US, has disclosed its carbon emissions and climate commitments. For the reporting year 2024, Battelle reported total emissions of approximately 40.6 million kg CO2e, comprising Scope 1 emissions of around 16.4 million kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions of approximately 21.9 million kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions, specifically from upstream leased assets, accounted for about 2.2 million kg CO2e. In 2023, total emissions were approximately 42.7 million kg CO2e. Scope 1 emissions were around 17.5 million kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions were about 23.0 million kg CO2e, with upstream leased assets contributing approximately 2.2 million kg CO2e to Scope 3. For the 2022 reporting year, Battelle's total emissions were approximately 41.4 million kg CO2e. This included Scope 1 emissions of about 17.3 million kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions of roughly 21.7 million kg CO2e. Upstream leased assets in Scope 3 amounted to approximately 2.4 million kg CO2e. Battelle's disclosed reduction targets include a long-term commitment to reduce Scope 1 emissions by 42.0% from a 2021 baseline, targeting a reduction of 16.0% to 46.1 kilotonnes CO2e by 2030. Additionally, Scope 2 emissions are targeted for a 42.0% overall reduction, with a specific goal of a 26.0% reduction to 37.5 kilotonnes CO2e by 2030, also from a 2021 baseline. The organisation has provided Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions data from 2016 to 2024, with Scope 3 data being reported from 2022 onwards. However, specific data points for Scope 3 categories such as "purchased goods and services" were noted as missing in several reporting years. Battelle is not currently reporting under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi).
