In 2023, total emissions were around 4,197,000 kg CO2e, with 13,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 82,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 (market-based), and 4,102,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3. The company's emissions in 2022 were approximately 3,749,000 kg CO2e (Scope 1: 3,000 kg CO2e; Scope 2 market-based: 61,000 kg CO2e; Scope 3: 3,685,000 kg CO2e). In 2021, total emissions were about 1,905,000 kg CO2e (Scope 1: 3,000 kg CO2e; Scope 2 market-based: 51,000 kg CO2e; Scope 3: 1,850,000 kg CO2e). In 2020, total emissions were approximately 1,728,000 kg CO2e (Scope 2 market-based: 212,000 kg CO2e; Scope 3: 1,571,000 kg CO2e), with no Scope 1 data available. In 2019, the total emissions were around 2,673,000 kg CO2e, comprising 13,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 307,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 location-based emissions, and 2,352,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3.

Ecovadis has set ambitious Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) aligned goals. They are committed to reducing absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 50% by 2030 from a 2019 base year. Additionally, they aim to increase annual sourcing of renewable electricity from 22% in 2019 to 100% by 2030. For Scope 3, Ecovadis commits to reducing emissions from specific categories (purchased goods and services, capital goods, fuel and energy related activities, upstream transportation and distribution, waste generated in operations, business travel and employee commuting) by 55% per unit value added by 2030 from a 2019 base year. The company also has a long-term target to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across the entire value chain by 2040, including reducing absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 90% by 2040 from a 2019 base year, and Scope 3 GHG emissions by 97% per EUR value added within the same timeframe. These commitments are consistent with reductions required to keep warming to 1.5°C.
