Modulight's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Modulight reported total carbon emissions of approximately 724,800 kg CO2e. This figure includes 7,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, primarily from mobile combustion, and 396,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions related to business travel. Employee commuting contributed an additional 26,000 kg CO2e, while waste generated in operations accounted for 1,000 kg CO2e. Notably, there were no emissions from purchased electricity (Scope 2). Comparatively, in 2022, Modulight's total emissions were about 606,000 kg CO2e, indicating an increase in emissions year-on-year. The Scope 1 emissions for that year were 8,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions included 303,000 kg CO2e from business travel and 19,000 kg CO2e from employee commuting. Despite the increase in total emissions, Modulight has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented climate pledges or science-based targets suggests that while the company is aware of its emissions, it may not yet have formalised a comprehensive strategy for reduction.
