In 2024, Eimskip reported total carbon emissions of approximately 282,270,000 kg CO2e, with significant contributions from Scope 1 and Scope 3 emissions. Specifically, Scope 1 emissions, primarily from fugitive emissions, accounted for about 1,617,000 kg CO2e, while Scope 3 emissions, including business travel and fuel-related activities, totalled approximately 63,695,000 kg CO2e. In 2023, the company recorded total emissions of about 279,669,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 2,143,000 kg CO2e and Scope 3 emissions at around 62,943,000 kg CO2e. This indicates a slight reduction in total emissions from the previous year. Eimskip has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The company’s emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation, ensuring that the reported figures are solely reflective of Eimskipafélag Íslands hf.'s operations. Overall, Eimskip's emissions profile highlights the importance of addressing both direct and indirect emissions as part of its climate commitments, although specific reduction strategies have yet to be established.
