Rail Cargo Austria AG's reported carbon emissions

In 2024, Rail Cargo Austria AG reported total carbon emissions of approximately 3,435,000,000 kg CO2e. This figure represents a significant increase compared to the previous year, 2023, when emissions were recorded at about 146,000 kg CO2e. The emissions data for both years is classified under Scope 1, 2, and 3, although specific breakdowns for these scopes were not disclosed. Despite the substantial emissions reported, Rail Cargo Austria AG has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction initiatives or SBTi targets. The company operates as a current subsidiary of a larger corporate family, inheriting its emissions data from Rail Cargo Austria AG itself, with no additional cascading from parent organisations. Rail Cargo Austria AG's commitment to climate action remains unclear, as there are no publicly available details on specific initiatives aimed at reducing their carbon footprint. The company is encouraged to establish measurable targets and transparent reporting to align with industry standards and enhance its sustainability profile.
