Surtigas's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Surtigas reported total carbon emissions of approximately 162,982,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 14,428,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 3,834,809,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. This reflects a significant reliance on Scope 3 emissions, which include indirect emissions from the use of sold products and purchased goods and services. Over the years, Surtigas has seen fluctuations in its emissions. For instance, in 2022, the company emitted about 169,207,250 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 12,927,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 3,952,039,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3. The data indicates a slight decrease in Scope 1 emissions from 2022 to 2023, while Scope 2 emissions increased marginally. Despite these figures, Surtigas has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing its carbon footprint. The absence of documented reduction strategies suggests a need for enhanced climate commitments within the organisation. As the company operates in the energy sector, it is crucial for Surtigas to align with industry standards and best practices in climate action to mitigate its environmental impact effectively.
