In 2021, Invitae Corporation, headquartered in the US, reported total carbon emissions of approximately 3,519,000 kg CO2e, which includes 512,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions and 3,071,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. The Scope 1 emissions breakdown indicates that 12,000 kg CO2e originated from mobile combustion, while the majority, 500,000 kg CO2e, came from stationary combustion. Notably, Invitae has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data. Despite the significant emissions figures, Invitae has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. There are no reported commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of reduction targets suggests that Invitae may be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. Overall, while Invitae Corporation has made strides in transparency regarding its emissions, further commitments and reduction initiatives will be essential for aligning with industry standards and addressing climate change effectively.
