Nordex's reported carbon emissions

In 2024, Nordex SE reported total carbon emissions of approximately 4,704,408,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at about 53,007,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions at approximately 40,500 kg CO2e (market-based), and a significant Scope 3 total of around 4,650,996,000 kg CO2e. This represents a slight decrease from 2023, where total emissions were about 5,078,052,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at approximately 66,433,000 kg CO2e and Scope 3 at around 5,011,036,000 kg CO2e. Nordex has set ambitious climate commitments, aiming for net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across its value chain by 2050. Near-term targets include a 42% reduction in absolute Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2030 from a 2022 baseline, and a 25% reduction in absolute Scope 3 emissions within the same timeframe. Long-term goals further stipulate a 90% reduction in both Scope 1 and 2 emissions and Scope 3 emissions by 2050, also from a 2022 baseline. Additionally, Nordex has committed to reducing its Scope 2 emissions by 30% by 2030 from a 2020 baseline. The company is currently on track to meet its near-term targets for Scope 2 emissions, while progress for Scope 1 is less certain. These commitments align with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and reflect Nordex's dedication to addressing climate change within the electrical equipment and machinery sector.
