ElringKlinger's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, ElringKlinger reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,270 kg CO2e, exclusively from Scope 3 emissions. This marks a significant focus on upstream emissions, as the company has not disclosed any data for Scope 1 or Scope 2 emissions for this year. In 2022, ElringKlinger’s total emissions were about 73,740,000 kg CO2e, comprising 22,070,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 50,400,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 1,270,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3. This indicates a substantial reliance on purchased electricity, which is a key area for potential emissions reduction. ElringKlinger has set ambitious climate commitments, aiming for net zero emissions for both Scope 1 and Scope 2 by 2025 in Europe and by 2030 globally. This commitment is formalised in their Climate Protection Agreement, which reflects their strategic intent to achieve carbon neutrality in net terms for these scopes by 2030. The company’s emissions data is sourced directly from ElringKlinger AG, with no cascaded data from parent or related organisations. ElringKlinger is actively working towards reducing its carbon footprint, particularly in its operational emissions, as part of its broader sustainability strategy.
