This indicates a significant reliance on Scope 3 emissions, which typically encompass indirect emissions from the value chain, including the use of sold products. Cepsa's emissions data from previous years shows a trend of high emissions, with Scope 1 emissions peaking at about 6,800,000,000 kg CO2e in 2019. The company has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other frameworks, indicating a potential area for improvement in their climate commitments. Overall, while Cepsa has made strides in reporting its emissions, the absence of defined reduction targets suggests that further action may be necessary to align with global climate goals.
