Permobil's reported carbon emissions
In 2022, Permobil reported carbon emissions of approximately 4,447 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 3,864 kg CO2e for Scope 2. The company has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data for this year. Over the years, Permobil's emissions have varied significantly, with a peak in 2017 at about 9,261,000 kg CO2e across all scopes. From 2015 to 2022, Permobil has shown a notable reduction in emissions, particularly in Scope 1 and Scope 2, where emissions decreased from about 7,525,000 kg CO2e in 2015 to the aforementioned figures in 2022. However, there are no specific reduction targets or initiatives outlined in their climate commitments, indicating a potential area for improvement in their sustainability strategy. Overall, while Permobil has made strides in reducing its direct emissions, the absence of defined reduction targets suggests that further commitment to climate action may be necessary to enhance their environmental impact.
