Natural Resources Wales

Natural Resources Wales (NRW), headquartered in GB and operating within the public administration and defence services sector, has reported its carbon emissions for several years. In 2017, NRW's total emissions were approximately 5,115,000 kg CO2e. This total comprised about 2,466,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 1,317,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 603,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3.

Emissions data for earlier years includes:

• 2016: Total emissions were approximately 5,115,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at 2,835,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at 1,662,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at 617,000 kg CO2e.
• 2015: Total emissions were approximately 6,021,000 kg CO2e, consisting of 2,999,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 2,048,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 974,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3.
• 2018: Data indicates approximately 603,000 tonnes (which is 603,000,000 kg CO2e) for emissions categorised as "other" within the "consumption (tCO2e)" scope, but specific Scope 1, 2, or 3 breakdowns are not available for this year.

NRW has established several climate commitments. Notably, the organisation pledges to achieve net zero emissions by 2025, utilising a combination of emissions reduction and carbon offsetting. Furthermore, NRW aims to become a net zero carbon council by 2030, while also supporting its communities in reaching net zero.

In terms of specific reduction targets, NRW committed to reducing its carbon dioxide emissions from occupied buildings, travel, and water use by 5% based on 2017/18 data. This target applied to both Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions.
