Brit Insurance's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Brit Insurance reported total carbon emissions of approximately 6,000,000 kg CO2e, with significant contributions from Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions. Specifically, Scope 1 emissions were about 196,000 kg CO2e, primarily from stationary combustion, while Scope 2 emissions totalled around 222,000 kg CO2e from purchased electricity. Notably, Scope 3 emissions, particularly from business travel, accounted for a substantial 5,452,000 kg CO2e. In 2024, emissions data indicates a slight decrease in Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 139,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at about 199,000 kg CO2e. However, Scope 3 emissions from business travel remained high at around 3,670,000 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, Brit Insurance has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of formal commitments or targets suggests a need for enhanced climate action strategies within the organisation. Overall, while Brit Insurance has made strides in tracking emissions across all scopes, further efforts are required to establish clear reduction goals and initiatives to mitigate their environmental impact.
