Sodern SA has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data, indicating a focus primarily on direct and indirect emissions from their operations. The company has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges, suggesting a need for further commitment in this area. The emissions data for 2022 also highlights significant figures, with total emissions of about 1,477,300 kg CO2e, which included Scope 1 and 2 emissions. The company’s emissions strategy appears to be evolving, but as of now, there are no formalised reduction targets or climate commitments documented. Overall, while Sodern SA has made strides in tracking and reporting emissions, the absence of specific reduction initiatives or targets indicates an opportunity for enhanced climate action and commitment to sustainability.
