J. Lauritzen A/S's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, J. Lauritzen A/S reported carbon emissions of approximately 684,000,000 kg CO2e, with all emissions classified under Scope 1. This figure reflects the company's direct emissions from its operations. The previous years' emissions data for 2022 and 2021 are not disclosed, indicating a lack of comprehensive reporting on their total emissions across all scopes. Despite the significant emissions reported, J. Lauritzen A/S has not established any specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). This suggests that while the company is aware of its carbon footprint, it has yet to formalise a strategy for emissions reduction or climate action. The company operates in the maritime industry, where emissions management is increasingly critical due to regulatory pressures and the global push for sustainability. As such, J. Lauritzen A/S may need to consider developing a robust climate strategy to align with industry standards and stakeholder expectations.
