Ecorys's reported carbon emissions

In 2021, Ecorys reported total carbon emissions of approximately 467,800 kg CO2e, comprising 900 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 257,300 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 209,900 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. This marked a significant reduction from 2019, when total emissions were about 704,200 kg CO2e. Despite these reductions, Ecorys has not established specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The company’s emissions per full-time equivalent (FTE) were approximately 1,800 kg CO2e in 2021, down from about 4,600 kg CO2e in 2019. Ecorys's headquarters is located in the Netherlands (NL), and while they have made strides in reducing their carbon footprint, further commitments and targets would enhance their climate strategy.
