HFW's reported carbon emissions
In 2021, HFW reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,401,800 kg CO2e across all scopes. This figure includes about 1,401,800 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which are direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, and an equal amount from Scope 2 emissions, representing indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity, steam, heating, and cooling. Additionally, Scope 3 emissions, which encompass all other indirect emissions, also totalled around 1,401,800 kg CO2e. Comparatively, in 2020, HFW's emissions were higher, with approximately 1,799,400 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 871,800 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 1,799,400 kg CO2e for Scope 3. This indicates a significant reduction in emissions across all scopes from 2020 to 2021. Despite these reductions, HFW has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of formal commitments suggests that while the company is making progress in reducing its carbon footprint, further transparency regarding future climate strategies and targets would be beneficial.
