In 2023, Norwegian Air Shuttle reported total carbon emissions of approximately 2,487,693,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 2,043,316,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which primarily arise from direct fuel combustion. The airline also reported Scope 2 emissions of about 509,000 kg CO2e, mainly from purchased electricity, and Scope 3 emissions of approximately 442,655,000 kg CO2e, which include indirect emissions from activities such as fuel and energy-related activities. Norwegian Air Shuttle has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments, indicating a lack of formalised strategies to reduce its carbon footprint. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that the airline may be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate action plan. Overall, while Norwegian Air Shuttle has made strides in reporting its emissions, the lack of defined reduction initiatives highlights an area for potential improvement in its sustainability efforts.
