In 2024, the company reported approximately 1.52 million kg CO2e for Scope 1 emissions and approximately 2.35 million kg CO2e for Scope 2 market-based emissions. Scope 1 emissions in 2024 were primarily driven by stationary combustion, accounting for about 1.11 million kg CO2e, with mobile combustion and fugitive emissions contributing smaller amounts. Scope 2 emissions in the same year were mainly from purchased electricity, totalling approximately 2.28 million kg CO2e. Looking back, Novanta's Scope 1 emissions in 2023 were approximately 2.13 million kg CO2e, with stationary combustion being the largest contributor at about 1.06 million kg CO2e, and fugitive emissions notably higher than in 2024 at around 781,000 kg CO2e. Scope 2 market-based emissions in 2023 stood at approximately 3.79 million kg CO2e, with purchased electricity accounting for about 3.69 million kg CO2e. In 2022, Novanta's Scope 1 emissions were approximately 1.36 million kg CO2e, with stationary combustion around 1.04 million kg CO2e. Scope 2 market-based emissions were higher in 2022, reaching approximately 4.85 million kg CO2e, predominantly from purchased electricity (about 4.75 million kg CO2e). For 2021, Scope 1 emissions were approximately 1.29 million kg CO2e, and Scope 2 market-based emissions were about 4.20 million kg CO2e. Novanta has established significant climate commitments.
