Heijmans's reported carbon emissions
Heijmans, a construction firm based in NL, reported a total of approximately 816.3 million kg CO2e for 2024. This figure includes Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions. In 2023, their total emissions were approximately 886.2 million kg CO2e.
The company has set ambitious climate commitments. By 2030, Heijmans aims to reduce its Scope 3 emissions by at least 50% compared to 2019 levels, focusing on emissions from purchased materials. Furthermore, they are committed to a 100% reduction in absolute Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2030, relative to a 2019 baseline. This includes bringing emissions from their direct operations, such as their vehicle fleet, equipment, offices, and construction sites, down to zero through sustainable measures. They also plan to fully offset the emissions from their direct operations by purchasing carbon credits.
Beyond these near-term targets, Heijmans has a long-term goal to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across their entire value chain by 2040. This involves maintaining a 100% absolute reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions from 2030 through 2040, and a 90% reduction in Scope 3 emissions by 2040, both compared to their 2019 baseline.
