The company has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, nor have they joined the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) for formal emissions reduction commitments. Overall, while Plasser & Theurer has made progress in reducing their direct emissions, the high levels of Scope 3 emissions highlight the need for further action in their climate strategy.
