In 2024, Cassava Technologies reported total carbon emissions of approximately 199,413,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 12,655,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which encompass direct emissions from owned or controlled sources. The company’s Scope 2 emissions, primarily from purchased electricity, accounted for about 136,931,000 kg CO2e. Additionally, Scope 3 emissions, which cover indirect emissions from the value chain, totalled approximately 264,381,000 kg CO2e. Notably, the largest contributors to Scope 3 emissions were upstream leased assets (64,207,000 kg CO2e) and employee commuting (25,200,000 kg CO2e). Despite the significant emissions reported, Cassava Technologies has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. The absence of SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets indicates a potential area for future development in their sustainability strategy. The company operates independently without cascading emissions data from a parent organization, ensuring that their reported figures reflect their own operational impact.
