In 2024, Södra Cell Aktiebolag reported carbon emissions of approximately 85,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and about 718,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions.

Despite these figures, Södra Cell has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented climate pledges or Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) commitments suggests that while the company is actively monitoring its emissions, it may not yet have formalised strategies for significant reductions. Overall, Södra Cell's emissions data highlights the ongoing challenges within the industry regarding carbon management and the need for robust climate commitments to drive meaningful change.
