DNA's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, DNA Oyj reported total carbon emissions of approximately 20,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 and about 83,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1. This marks a significant increase in Scope 2 emissions compared to 2022, where emissions were about 7,500,000 kg CO2e, while Scope 1 emissions were approximately 88,600 kg CO2e. Over the years, DNA has shown fluctuations in its emissions, with the highest recorded Scope 2 emissions in 2018 at about 17,900,000 kg CO2e and Scope 1 emissions peaking in 2013 at approximately 1,104,000 kg CO2e. The company has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data, which typically includes indirect emissions from the supply chain and product use. Despite the lack of specific reduction targets or commitments, DNA is part of a corporate family under Telenor ASA, which may influence its climate strategies. However, no specific SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) or other reduction targets have been reported. The absence of a formal climate pledge indicates that while DNA is aware of its emissions, it has yet to establish concrete commitments towards reduction. Overall, DNA Oyj's emissions data reflects its operational impact, with a clear need for enhanced climate commitments and reduction strategies to align with industry standards and expectations.
