Coop's reported carbon emissions
Coop, a food products company based in Denmark, is committed to significant greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reductions, aligning its targets with a 1.5°C warming scenario as validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi).
For the 2022 reporting year, Coop reported total Scope 1 emissions of approximately 238,046,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions of about 58,318,000 kg CO2e. In 2021, Scope 1 emissions were around 235,945,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions were approximately 104,378,000 kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions data is not yet available for these years, with "purchased goods and services" noted as a missing data point.
Coop Amba, the parent organisation, has ambitious near-term climate targets. By 2030, it aims to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by a substantial 91% from a 2018 baseline year. Furthermore, Coop Amba is working to reduce Scope 3 GHG emissions by 24.6% per unit revenue (DKK) by 2030, based on a 2019 baseline. This intensity-based reduction is projected to result in a 16% decrease in absolute Scope 3 emissions. An additional commitment involves reducing absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions from the use of sold products from fossil fuels by 27.5% by 2030, also from a 2019 baseline. These targets are sourced from the SBTi and have been cascaded to Coop.
