This marks a significant increase from 2023, where total emissions were about 1,383,400 kg CO2e, comprising 183,000 kg CO2e in Scope 1, 1,012,500 kg CO2e in Scope 2, and 187,900 kg CO2e in Scope 3. NCC has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments, and there are no SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets reported. The emissions data is not cascaded from a parent organization, indicating that NCC Group plc independently reports its emissions. Overall, NCC's emissions reflect the challenges faced in reducing carbon footprints within the construction and engineering sectors, where operational and supply chain emissions can be substantial. The company continues to monitor its emissions and engage in sustainability practices, although specific reduction strategies have yet to be outlined.
