Luzerner Kantonalbank's reported carbon emissions

Luzerner Kantonalbank, headquartered in Switzerland (CH), has not disclosed specific carbon emissions data for recent years. The latest available information dates back to 2014, where the bank reported an intensity of Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions at approximately 1,046.6 kg CO2e per employee and 369.0 kg CO2e per heating degree day (HDD) for electricity consumption. However, no absolute emissions figures for Scope 1, 2, or 3 have been provided. Currently, Luzerner Kantonalbank has not set any formal reduction targets or commitments under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of specific reduction initiatives indicates a potential area for improvement in their climate strategy. As of now, the bank's emissions data is not cascaded from any parent or related organization, and all performance metrics are sourced directly from Luzerner Kantonalbank AG. The bank's commitment to addressing climate change remains unclear, highlighting the need for enhanced transparency and action in future sustainability reporting.
