Norges Bank Investment Management's reported carbon emissions

In 2022, Norges Bank Investment Management reported significant carbon emissions, with a total of approximately 87.4 million tonnes CO2e from Scope 1 and 2 emissions. Additionally, Scope 3 emissions were substantial, amounting to about 25.5 billion tonnes CO2e from purchased goods and services and approximately 18.6 billion tonnes CO2e from fuel and energy-related activities. Despite these figures, there are currently no specific reduction targets or commitments outlined by Norges Bank Investment Management. The organisation has not established formal reduction initiatives or climate pledges, indicating a potential area for future development in their climate strategy. Overall, while the emissions data highlights the scale of their carbon footprint, the absence of defined reduction targets suggests that Norges Bank Investment Management may need to enhance its climate commitments to align with industry standards and expectations.
