Specifically, Scope 1 emissions were about 29,200,000 kg CO2e, primarily from stationary combustion, while Scope 2 emissions totalled approximately 207,100,000 kg CO2e, predominantly from purchased electricity. OSRAM has set ambitious climate commitments, aiming to achieve a 100% reduction in its carbon footprint (Scope 1 and 2) by 2030. This target was announced in November 2019 and reflects the company's commitment to sustainability and climate action. The emissions data for previous years shows a slight decrease in Scope 1 emissions from 30,200,000 kg CO2e in 2019 and 31,000,000 kg CO2e in 2018, indicating a trend towards reduced emissions. However, comprehensive data for Scope 3 emissions is not available, as OSRAM has not disclosed these figures.
