MAN Energy Solutions SE's reported carbon emissions
MAN Energy Solutions SE, headquartered in Germany and operating within the motor vehicles, trailers and semi-trailers industry, has established a commitment to reducing its carbon emissions.
For the year 2025, MAN Energy Solutions reported approximately 178.7 billion kg CO2e in total emissions. This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 45.5 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of approximately 5.5 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions estimated at around 177.8 billion kg CO2e. The breakdown for Scope 3 emissions shows that the use of sold products accounted for approximately 177.8 billion kg CO2e, and purchased goods and services contributed about 770.2 million kg CO2e.
In 2024, the company's total emissions were approximately 50.2 billion kg CO2e. This comprised Scope 1 emissions of about 37.1 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of approximately 5.1 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions totalling about 48.9 billion kg CO2e, with the use of sold products being the largest contributor at approximately 48.9 billion kg CO2e and purchased goods and services at about 1.1 billion kg CO2e.
MAN Energy Solutions has set ambitious reduction targets. The company aims to achieve net-zero emissions in its own operations by 2050. Furthermore, it has a near-term goal to halve the CO2 emissions from its own production (Scope 1 and Scope 2) by 2030, compared to 2018 levels. In 2023, Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions were reported as approximately 45.6 million kg CO2e and 5.6 million kg CO2e, respectively. In 2022, Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions were approximately 33.4 million kg CO2e and 7.6 million kg CO2e, respectively. For 2021, Scope 1 emissions were approximately 52,891.79 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions were approximately 19,540.25 kg CO2e. Earlier data from 2019 indicates total emissions of about 82.6 million kg CO2e, comprising Scope 1 of approximately 44.3 million kg CO2e and Scope 2 of about 38.2 million kg CO2e.
