Quarzwerke GmbH's reported carbon emissions
In 2022, Quarzwerke GmbH reported total carbon emissions of approximately 203,122,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and about 87,769,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2. This brings their combined emissions from these two scopes to around 290,891,000 kg CO2e. Notably, there is no available data on Scope 3 emissions. Currently, Quarzwerke GmbH has not established any specific reduction targets or initiatives, nor have they made commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). This indicates a potential area for growth in their climate strategy, as many companies in the industry are increasingly setting ambitious targets to reduce their carbon footprint. As a company headquartered in Germany, Quarzwerke operates within a sector that is under pressure to enhance sustainability practices and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The absence of defined reduction goals suggests that the company may need to develop a more robust climate action plan to align with global sustainability trends.
