Norsk rikskringkasting AS's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Norsk rikskringkasting AS (NRK) reported total carbon emissions of approximately 717,407,889,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 36,665,583,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which are direct emissions from owned or controlled sources. Scope 2 emissions, related to the generation of purchased electricity, steam, heating, and cooling, amounted to about 5,788,616,000 kg CO2e, with a negligible market-based component of 1,500 kg CO2e. The majority of NRK's emissions, approximately 694,249,335,600 kg CO2e, fall under Scope 3, which encompasses all other indirect emissions that occur in the value chain. Comparatively, in 2022, NRK's total emissions were about 729,234,234,000 kg CO2e, indicating a slight reduction in emissions year-on-year. The breakdown for 2022 shows Scope 1 emissions at approximately 37,559,906,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions at about 5,540,147,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions at around 705,076,346,000 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, NRK has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or commitments to frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The organisation's emissions data is not cascaded from any parent company, and it operates independently in its climate reporting. Overall, while NRK has demonstrated a minor decrease in emissions from 2022 to 2023, the lack of formal reduction commitments highlights an area for potential improvement in their climate strategy.
