Cez

Cez, a Czech Republic-headquartered electricity company specialising in nuclear power, reported total emissions of approximately 27.9 billion kg CO2e in 2025. This included about 14.1 billion kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, an estimated 104,000 kg CO2e from market-based Scope 2 emissions, and approximately 13.8 billion kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. A significant portion of Scope 3 emissions in 2025 came from the use of sold products (about 8.36 billion kg CO2e) and fuel and energy-related activities (around 4.11 billion kg CO2e).

Looking back, Cez's total emissions in 2024 were approximately 27.3 billion kg CO2e, comprising about 15.5 billion kg CO2e in Scope 1, around 28,000 kg CO2e in market-based Scope 2, and approximately 11.8 billion kg CO2e in Scope 3 emissions. In 2023, the company reported approximately 16 billion kg CO2e in Scope 1 emissions and about 13.5 billion kg CO2e in Scope 3 emissions, though Scope 2 data was not available for this year.

Cez has set ambitious climate commitments, aiming for climate neutrality by 2040 across all scopes. This goal was readjusted in May 2022. The company also aims to reduce its Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions intensity per MWh by 83% by 2033 from a 2019 baseline, excluding activities in Poland, Bulgaria, Romania, and the Počerady coal plant. Additionally, Cez commits to reducing absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions from the use of sold products by 58.8% by 2033, and by 90% by 2040, against a 2019 base year. Near-term intensity targets include reducing specific Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions per MWh of electricity and heat generation by 30.8% by 2025 and by 57.4% by 2030, compared to a 2019 baseline.
