In 2023, Qt Group Oyj reported total emissions of approximately 197,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 2, alongside about 586,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3, specifically attributed to business travel. This marks a significant increase in Scope 3 emissions compared to 2022, where they reported about 290,000 kg CO2e for business travel, while Scope 1 and 2 emissions were approximately 122,000 kg CO2e. In 2021, the company recorded only about 17,000 kg CO2e in Scope 3 emissions. Despite these figures, Qt has not established specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or commitments to frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The emissions data is not cascaded from a parent company, indicating that Qt Group Oyj operates independently in its reporting and climate commitments. Overall, while Qt Group Oyj has made strides in transparency regarding its emissions, the lack of defined reduction strategies highlights an area for potential improvement in its climate commitments.
