This includes Scope 1 emissions of approximately 10,000,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions of approximately 40,000,000 kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions accounted for the largest portion, at approximately 490,000,000 kg CO2e, with purchased goods and services being a significant contributor within this scope.

For 2024, NatWest reported total emissions of approximately 550,000,000 kg CO2e. Scope 1 emissions were around 10,000,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions were approximately 50,000,000 kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions totalled approximately 490,000,000 kg CO2e, with purchased goods and services representing a substantial part.

In 2023, NatWest's total emissions were approximately 580,000,000 kg CO2e. This comprised Scope 1 emissions of approximately 10,000,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of approximately 50,000,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions of approximately 520,000,000 kg CO2e.

NatWest has set a clear net-zero ambition, aiming to achieve net zero by 2050 for its operational value chain emissions, covering Scopes 1, 2, and all relevant categories in Scope 3. Furthermore, the bank aims to halve the climate impact of its financing activity by 2030, against a 2019 baseline. They also have a target to reduce their direct own operations emissions (Scope 1 and Scope 2 location-based) by 70% by 2030, compared to a 2019 baseline. In addition, NatWest aims to reduce its direct own operations emissions by 50% by 2025, using a 2019 baseline.
