In 2023, SpareBank 1 Sør-Norge ASA reported energy intensity figures of approximately 213 kg CO2e per square metre, reflecting their operational emissions. This data is part of their commitment to transparency regarding carbon emissions, although specific Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions data has not been disclosed for the years 2021 to 2023. The bank's energy intensity has shown a slight increase from about 203 kg CO2e/m² in 2022 and 233 kg CO2e/m² in 2021. Despite these figures, there are currently no established reduction targets or climate pledges reported by SpareBank 1 Sør-Norge ASA, indicating a potential area for future commitment. As of now, the organisation does not inherit emissions data from a parent company, and all reported figures are directly from SpareBank 1 Sør-Norge ASA. The absence of specific reduction initiatives or targets suggests that the bank may need to enhance its climate strategy to align with industry standards and expectations.
