In 2023, Statkraft reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,619,324,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 889,360,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of approximately 155,300,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions totalling around 791,276,000 kg CO2e. The Scope 3 emissions breakdown reveals significant contributions from capital goods (approximately 409,000,000 kg CO2e) and purchased goods and services (about 141,600,000 kg CO2e). Statkraft's emissions have varied over recent years, with total emissions in 2024 reaching approximately 5,550,344,000 kg CO2e, primarily driven by Scope 3 emissions, which accounted for about 4,436,208,000 kg CO2e. In 2021, the company reported total emissions of around 1,000,000,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 1,044,500,000 kg CO2e and Scope 3 emissions at about 619,100,000 kg CO2e. Despite the substantial emissions figures, there are currently no publicly disclosed reduction targets or initiatives from Statkraft, including those aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of specific climate pledges indicates a potential area for improvement in their sustainability strategy. Statkraft's headquarters is located in Norway (NO), and the company operates within the global energy sector, focusing on renewable energy solutions. As the industry increasingly prioritises carbon neutrality, Statkraft's future commitments and strategies will be crucial in addressing climate change and reducing their carbon footprint.
