In 2022, Elastic N.V., headquartered in the Netherlands, reported total carbon emissions of approximately 28,210,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 122,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 298,000 kg CO2e from market-based Scope 2 emissions, and a significant 28,210,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions, which encompasses categories such as purchased goods and services (23,800,000 kg CO2e) and employee commuting (2,150,000 kg CO2e). Comparatively, in 2021, Elastic's total emissions were about 21,148,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 110,000 kg CO2e and market-based Scope 2 emissions at 248,000 kg CO2e. The increase in emissions from 2021 to 2022 highlights the company's growing operational footprint. Elastic has made commitments towards climate action, although some near-term targets have been removed or expired. As of June 2023, the company has committed to near-term targets, but it has not set a net-zero target or a specific long-term reduction goal. The absence of a net-zero commitment indicates a need for further strategic planning in their sustainability efforts. Overall, while Elastic has made strides in reporting its emissions, the lack of robust reduction targets suggests that there is room for improvement in its climate commitments.
