Scope 3 accounts for ••• of total emissions.
In 2024, Bpifrance reported total carbon emissions of approximately 9.4 billion kg CO2e, comprising 8.7 million kg CO2e from Scope 1, 414,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 9.34 billion kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. This data reflects a significant reliance on indirect emissions, particularly from the supply chain.
Comparatively, in 2022, Bpifrance's total emissions were approximately 56 million kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 7.6 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 at 360,700 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions at 55.6 million kg CO2e. The increase in emissions from 2022 to 2024 indicates a growing operational footprint, particularly in Scope 3.
Despite the substantial emissions figures, Bpifrance has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or SBTi commitments. This lack of formal climate pledges suggests a need for enhanced climate action strategies within the organisation.
Overall, Bpifrance's emissions data highlights the importance of addressing both direct and indirect emissions, particularly in the context of their significant Scope 3 contributions.
