SINTEF's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, SINTEF reported total carbon emissions of approximately 24,627,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 77,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of approximately 415,000 kg CO2e, and significant Scope 3 emissions totalling around 23,135,000 kg CO2e. The Scope 3 emissions breakdown reveals major contributions from purchased goods and services (approximately 14,453,000 kg CO2e) and capital goods (about 7,048,000 kg CO2e). Comparatively, SINTEF's total emissions increased from about 23,572,000 kg CO2e in 2022 and 20,142,000 kg CO2e in 2021, indicating a rising trend in carbon output. Despite this increase, there are currently no disclosed reduction targets or climate pledges from SINTEF, which suggests a need for enhanced commitment to sustainability and emissions reduction strategies. Overall, SINTEF's emissions data highlights the importance of addressing both direct and indirect emissions to meet future climate commitments effectively.

Reduction initiatives & disclosure networks
Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.
SINTEF is not committed to any reduction initiatives we track. This may change over time as the company engages with new initiatives or updates its commitments. DitchCarbon will update this information as it becomes available.
