As a public administration and defence services provider based in the Netherlands, the City of Amsterdam has set several ambitious climate targets. The city aims for a 55% reduction in Scope 1 and Scope 2 CO2 emissions by 2030, compared to 1990 levels. A more ambitious target of 60% reduction in Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 2030, also against a 1990 baseline, has also been identified. Looking further ahead, the City of Amsterdam is targeting a 95% reduction in Scope 1 and Scope 2 CO2 emissions by 2050, from a 1990 baseline, as part of its long-term net-zero commitment. The city also plans to be natural-gas-free by 2040 and achieve overall climate neutrality by 2050.
