Fermentalg's reported carbon emissions

In 2022, Fermentalg reported total carbon emissions of approximately 14,118,150 kg CO2e. This figure includes 871,840 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 63,150 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, and a significant 13,183,170 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. The previous year, 2021, saw total emissions of about 10,859,700 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 and 2 emissions amounting to 1,019,000 kg CO2e. Despite the increase in total emissions from 2021 to 2022, Fermentalg has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented reduction strategies suggests a need for enhanced climate commitments within the industry context. As a company headquartered in France, Fermentalg is positioned to align with European climate goals, which may influence future emissions strategies.
