In 2025, OUTsurance Group reported total carbon emissions of approximately 8,014,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 8,366,300 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 5,824,800 kg CO2e for Scope 3. This data reflects a comprehensive approach to emissions reporting, covering all three scopes. Comparatively, in 2024, the emissions were about 819,300 kg CO2e (Scope 1), 9,085,000 kg CO2e (Scope 2), and 6,086,600 kg CO2e (Scope 3). In 2023, the figures were approximately 1,022,800 kg CO2e (Scope 1), 10,092,300 kg CO2e (Scope 2), and 6,415,100 kg CO2e (Scope 3). Over the years, OUTsurance Group has shown fluctuations in emissions, with a notable increase in Scope 2 emissions in 2023 and 2024. However, there are no specific reduction targets or initiatives disclosed in their reports, indicating a potential area for improvement in their climate commitments. The company does not inherit emissions data from any parent organisation, and all reported figures are directly from OUTsurance Group Limited. As of now, there are no specific climate pledges or SBTi targets in place, which may limit their strategic approach to carbon neutrality.
