As of 2020, PBL Netherlands reported carbon emissions of approximately 61,450,000 kg CO2e, all of which fall under Scope 1 emissions. This represents a significant reduction from previous years, with emissions decreasing from about 77,639,000 kg CO2e in 2019 and 120,267,000 kg CO2e in 2018. Over the years, PBL has shown a downward trend in its Scope 1 emissions, with a notable reduction from about 125,468,000 kg CO2e in 2013 to the latest figure in 2020. Despite these reductions, PBL Netherlands has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or commitments under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or any formal climate pledges. The absence of documented reduction initiatives suggests that while emissions have decreased, there may be opportunities for more structured climate commitments in the future.
