In 2024, Sunrise Communications AG reported total carbon emissions of approximately 168,000,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 1,204,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which encompass direct emissions from mobile and stationary combustion, as well as fugitive emissions. Scope 2 emissions, primarily from purchased heat and cooling, accounted for about 454,000 kg CO2e. The majority of emissions, approximately 165,000,000 kg CO2e, were classified under Scope 3, which includes emissions from capital goods, business travel, employee commuting, and purchased goods and services. Comparatively, in 2023, the company reported total emissions of about 168,000,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 1,759,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 517,000 kg CO2e. The Scope 3 emissions for that year were approximately 167,000,000 kg CO2e. This indicates a slight reduction in total emissions from 2023 to 2024. Sunrise Communications AG has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The company operates independently without cascading emissions data from a parent organisation, ensuring that its reported figures reflect its own operational impact. Overall, while Sunrise Communications AG has made strides in tracking its emissions across all three scopes, it currently lacks formal commitments to reduce its carbon footprint in the future.
