Nortek Inc.'s reported carbon emissions

In 2022, Nortek Inc. reported a carbon intensity of approximately 1,900 kg CO2e per employee, reflecting their operational footprint. This figure represents a notable increase from 2021, where the carbon intensity was about 1,200 kg CO2e per employee. The company has not disclosed specific Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions data, nor have they set formal reduction targets through initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Nortek's energy intensity across all offices under operational control was approximately 101.109 kWh per employee in 2022, a slight decrease from about 115.688 kWh in 2021. This trend indicates a focus on improving energy efficiency, although specific reduction initiatives or commitments have not been outlined. Overall, while Nortek Inc. has made strides in tracking their carbon emissions, the absence of formal reduction targets and detailed emissions data limits their climate commitment visibility. The company operates independently without cascading emissions data from a parent organisation, maintaining a direct responsibility for their environmental impact.
