Lancashire Holdings's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Lancashire Holdings reported total carbon emissions of approximately 2,642,800 kg CO2e. This figure includes 101,600 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which primarily stem from stationary combustion, and 280,600 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions related to purchased electricity. The majority of their emissions, about 2,260,600 kg CO2e, fall under Scope 3, with significant contributions from business travel (2,006,400 kg CO2e) and employee commuting (166,900 kg CO2e). In 2022, the company recorded total emissions of approximately 2,407,700 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 154,100 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 280,600 kg CO2e. The Scope 3 emissions for that year were notably high at about 2,260,600 kg CO2e, indicating a substantial impact from indirect activities. Lancashire Holdings has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or climate pledges. This lack of formal commitments suggests that while the company is aware of its carbon footprint, it may not yet have established a structured approach to reducing emissions in line with industry standards. Overall, Lancashire Holdings' emissions data highlights the need for a strategic focus on reducing both direct and indirect emissions to align with global climate goals.
