Biomega has established greenhouse gas baselines for its Hirtshals facility, with commitments to reduce emissions in both Scope 1 and Scope 2 by 2025. These initiatives reflect the company's near-term net-zero targets, although specific percentage reductions have not been disclosed. The company acknowledges that its production was not fully established throughout 2023, which may influence future emissions data.
As of now, Biomega does not report any Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) targets, and the emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation. The company is actively working towards enhancing its climate commitments and reducing its carbon footprint in alignment with industry standards.
