In 2023, the company's Scope 1 emissions were approximately 2.68 billion kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions were around 127 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions were about 5.74 billion kg CO2e.
MVV Energie has set ambitious climate commitments. The company aims for climate neutrality in its building use (Scope 2) by 2026. By 2030, MVV Energie commits to reducing its energy industry Scope 1 emissions by over 80% compared to 2018 levels, targeting less than 0.5 million tonnes CO2e. They also plan to convert their district heat generation in Mannheim and Offenbach to 100% green energy sources by 2030, which would equate to a 100% reduction in Scope 1 emissions for this segment from a 2018 baseline of 9.9 million tonnes CO2e.
MVV Energie has a long-term goal of achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across its entire value chain by 2040 from a 2018 base year, as validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The company also aims to become climate positive from 2040 at the latest. Their SBTi targets, cascaded from MVV Energie AG, include reducing Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 83% per kWh generated electricity by 2030 and by 99.8% per kWh by 2040. Additionally, they commit to reducing all other absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 83% by 2035 and by 95% by 2040. They also aim to reduce Scope 3 emissions from the use of sold products by 99% by 2040. The company also states an ambition to reduce its entire CO2 footprint to Net-Zero and become "climate-positive" by 2035, encompassing both core business and upstream and downstream value chain elements.
