Council of Europe Development Bank

The Council of Europe Development Bank (CEB), headquartered in France and operating within the 'Services auxiliary to financial intermediation (67)' industry, has reported its carbon emissions across various scopes. For the most recent reporting year available, 2025, the CEB's total calculated emissions were approximately 923,000 kg CO2e. This figure is comprised of Scope 1 emissions amounting to approximately 2,000 kg CO2e (from mobile combustion), Scope 2 emissions of approximately 2,000 kg CO2e (from purchased electricity), and Scope 3 emissions of approximately 899,000 kg CO2e, primarily driven by purchased goods and services (approximately 100,000 kg CO2e) and employee commute (approximately 23,000 kg CO2e).

In 2024, total calculated emissions were approximately 814,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at around 1,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at about 2,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at approximately 811,000 kg CO2e. The previous year, 2023, saw total emissions of approximately 604,000 kg CO2e, including Scope 1 at about 1,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at approximately 30,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at around 573,000 kg CO2e.

The CEB has established several reduction targets. Notably, it aims to reduce its Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 90% by 2030, using a 2020 baseline. Additionally, the EIB Group, which includes the CEB, committed to reducing its corporate absolute carbon emissions by 12.4% by 2025, against a 2018 baseline, covering Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions.
