In 2023, the Trust's total emissions were approximately 261,083,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at approximately 31,876,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at approximately 31,876,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at approximately 220,295,000 kg CO2e.

Earlier data from 2022 shows total emissions of approximately 285,044,000 kg CO2e, including Scope 1 emissions of approximately 34,341,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of approximately 34,341,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions of approximately 240,542,000 kg CO2e.

In 2019, the Trust reported total emissions of approximately 117,942,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 12,844,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions (purchased electricity) at approximately 12,911,000 kg CO2e. Scope 3 data was not disclosed for this year.

Climate Commitments and Reduction Targets:

North Bristol NHS Trust is committed to achieving net zero. They aim to reach net zero for the emissions they directly control by 2030. This encompasses their energy and water consumption, owned and leased vehicles, waste generation, business travel, anaesthetics administered, and inhalers prescribed.

Furthermore, the Trust has set a long-term goal to achieve net zero for emissions they can influence by 2045. Intermediate targets include a 50% reduction in these influenceable emissions by 2030 and an 80% reduction by 2036. These influenceable emissions cover their supply chain, including medicines, medical devices, construction, catering, IT, chemicals, gases, and staff and patient travel.
