Key contributors to Scope 3 emissions included fuel and energy-related activities (around 594 million kg CO2e), upstream transportation and distribution (approximately 300 million kg CO2e), and purchased goods and services (about 140 million kg CO2e).

DFDS has committed to several climate action targets. The company aims for a 45% reduction in CO2 per GT mile in Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 2030, using a 2008 baseline. Furthermore, DFDS is targeting carbon neutrality for Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 2050. For vessel operations, the company plans to reduce 'Tank-to-Wake' CO2 emissions intensity by 45% by 2030 and achieve net-zero by 2050. For road and land transport and warehousing, the target is a 75% reduction in 'Well-to-Wheel' CO2e emissions intensity by 2030, with a long-term goal of net-zero by 2050. DFDS A/S is a signatory to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), having committed to near-term and net-zero targets.
