For 2013, Scope 1 emissions were about 249,000 kg CO2e, with stationary combustion contributing 111,600 kg CO2e and mobile combustion 188,000 kg CO2e. Scope 2 emissions for 2013 were approximately 231,300 kg CO2e, with purchased electricity accounting for 190,300 kg CO2e. In 2012, Scope 1 emissions were approximately 2.58 million kg CO2e, with mobile combustion being 501,000 kg CO2e. Scope 2 emissions for 2012 were around 2.01 million kg CO2e. Deutsche Wohnen has established several climate commitments. The company aims for carbon neutrality in its operations by 2025 for both Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions.
