Scout24 has set ambitious climate commitments. The company aims to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across its value chain by 2045, with a long-term target to reduce absolute Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions by 90% by 2045 from a 2018 baseline year. For the near term, Scout24 commits to maintaining a 60% reduction in absolute CO2e emissions across all scopes by 2025, compared to the 2018 baseline.

Intermediate targets include a 69.8% reduction in absolute Scope 1 and 2 total emissions by 2030 from a 2018 base year. The company also aims for at least a 50.4% reduction in Scope 3 emissions by 2030, relative to the 2018 base year (excluding optional categories). These targets have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), confirming their alignment with a 1.5°C global warming scenario.
