This figure includes 164,102,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, primarily from purchased electricity, and 52,584,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions, which are entirely attributed to employee commuting. Notably, there were no reported Scope 1 emissions.

The absence of Scope 1 emissions in both years indicates a focus on indirect emissions. Cazoo Group Ltd has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives, nor does it appear to have cascaded any Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) commitments from its parent organization. The company operates as a current subsidiary of Cazoo Group Ltd, and all emissions data is sourced directly from its reporting. Overall, while Cazoo Group Ltd has made strides in tracking its carbon footprint, further commitments and reduction strategies would enhance its climate action profile.
