Photon Energy's reported carbon emissions

In 2024, Photon Energy, headquartered in the Netherlands (NL), reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,160,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 317,300 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 112,200 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, and significant Scope 3 emissions, with 160,500 kg CO2e attributed to business travel and 628,000 kg CO2e from employee commuting. The combined Scope 1 and 2 emissions totalled about 665,800 kg CO2e. Comparatively, in 2023, the company recorded total emissions of about 670,800 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 247,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 193,400 kg CO2e. The data indicates a slight increase in emissions from 2023 to 2024, primarily driven by Scope 3 emissions. Photon Energy has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments. The company does not appear to have cascaded emissions data from a parent organisation, and there are no reported SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets. Overall, Photon Energy's emissions profile highlights the importance of addressing both direct and indirect emissions, particularly in the context of employee commuting and business travel, as part of its broader climate strategy.
