Skanska's reported carbon emissions

Skanska, a construction company headquartered in Sweden (SE), is committed to significant carbon emission reductions across its operations and value chain. For the 2025 reporting year, Skanska reported global emissions totalling approximately 1.46 billion kg CO2e. This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of approximately 141 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions (market-based) of approximately 2 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions of approximately 1.18 billion kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions are primarily driven by purchased goods and services (approximately 945 million kg CO2e) and the use of sold products (approximately 185 million kg CO2e). Skanska has established ambitious climate targets, aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The company aims for a 70% reduction in absolute Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2030, using 2015 as the base year. Furthermore, Skanska is working towards a 50% reduction in absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 2030, with a 2020 base year, covering categories such as purchased goods and services, fuel and energy-related activities, waste generated in operations, business travel, and the use of sold products. The ultimate goal is to achieve net-zero carbon emissions across its operations and value chain by 2045. Skanska reports progress towards these near-term targets and is committed to an absolute reduction of Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 100% by 2045. Skanska UK has also committed to achieving net-zero emissions across all scopes by 2045.
