Biolite's reported carbon emissions
In 2024, BioLite reported total carbon emissions of approximately 11,526,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 14,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of approximately 6,000 kg CO2e, and a significant contribution from Scope 3 emissions, which totalled around 11,506,000 kg CO2e. In 2022, the company recorded total emissions of about 17,000,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 11,700 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at about 5,900 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions comprising various categories such as purchased goods and services (approximately 10,147,000 kg CO2e) and employee commute (around 6,118,000 kg CO2e). Despite these figures, BioLite has not established specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The company does not appear to inherit emissions data from a parent organisation, maintaining its own reporting structure. Overall, while BioLite's emissions data reflects a substantial carbon footprint, the lack of defined reduction strategies highlights an area for potential improvement in their climate commitments.
