NICE
NICE, officially known as the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence, is a prominent organisation headquartered in the United Kingdom. Established in 1999, NICE plays a crucial role in the healthcare sector, focusing on improving health outcomes through evidence-based guidance and quality standards. Operating primarily across England and Wales, NICE is renowned for its comprehensive evaluations of medical treatments, technologies, and public health interventions. Its core services include the development of clinical guidelines and health technology assessments, which are instrumental in shaping healthcare policies. With a commitment to enhancing patient care, NICE has achieved significant milestones, including the publication of thousands of guidelines that inform clinical practice. As a leader in health and care excellence, NICE continues to influence the landscape of healthcare delivery, ensuring that patients receive the best possible treatments based on the latest evidence.

NICE's reported carbon emissions
In 2024, NICE reported total carbon emissions of approximately 124,700 kg CO2e from Scope 2 and about 74,060 kg CO2e from Scope 3, reflecting a commitment to transparency in their climate impact. This marks a reduction from 2023, where total emissions were about 354,470 kg CO2e, with Scope 2 emissions at approximately 133,720 kg CO2e and Scope 3 emissions at around 220,750 kg CO2e. Looking back further, in 2022, NICE's total emissions were about 461,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 2 at approximately 124,000 kg CO2e and Scope 3 at around 337,000 kg CO2e. In 2021, total emissions reached about 475,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 2 emissions of approximately 115,000 kg CO2e and Scope 3 emissions at around 360,000 kg CO2e. Despite these reductions, NICE has not set specific science-based targets (SBTi) or documented climate pledges, indicating a potential area for future commitment. The emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organization, ensuring that the figures reflect NICE's independent operations. Overall, NICE's emissions trajectory shows a positive trend towards reducing their carbon footprint, aligning with broader industry efforts to combat climate change.

Reduction initiatives & disclosure networks
Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.
NICE is not participating in any of the initiatives that we track. This may change over time as the company engages with new initiatives or updates its commitments. DitchCarbon will update this information as it becomes available.
