For the reporting year 2025, TAKKT Group reported total emissions of approximately 1,501,337,000 kg CO2e. This figure comprises Scope 1 emissions totalling approximately 3,498,000 kg CO2e, with stationary combustion accounting for 2,466,000 kg CO2e. Scope 2 emissions, on a market-based approach, were approximately 2,381,000 kg CO2e, while location-based Scope 2 emissions were around 3,001,000 kg CO2e. The vast majority of their footprint, Scope 3 emissions, stood at approximately 1,008,476,000 kg CO2e, predominantly driven by the use of sold products (792,582,000 kg CO2e) and purchased goods and services (167,746,000 kg CO2e).

In the prior year, 2024, total emissions were approximately 1,501,337,000 kg CO2e. Scope 1 emissions were reported at approximately 3,679,000 kg CO2e, with stationary combustion being a significant contributor at 2,196,000 kg CO2e. Market-based Scope 2 emissions were approximately 2,464,000 kg CO2e, and location-based Scope 2 emissions were around 3,328,000 kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions for 2024 were approximately 1,495,194,000 kg CO2e, with the use of sold products contributing 1,119,731,000 kg CO2e and upstream transportation and distribution accounting for 199,871,000 kg CO2e.

Further historical data shows Scope 1 and 2 emissions of approximately 3,460,000 kg CO2e and 4,888,000 kg CO2e respectively for 2023, with Scope 3 data not being disclosed for that year. In 2022, Scope 1 and 2 emissions were approximately 3,547,000 kg CO2e and 5,090,000 kg CO2e. For 2021, Scope 1 and 2 emissions were approximately 3,825,000 kg CO2e and 5,514,000 kg CO2e respectively. In 2019, Scope 1 emissions were around 4,829,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions were approximately 6,672,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions were approximately 16,035,000 kg CO2e. In 2016, Scope 1 emissions were approximately 4,724,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions were around 7,459,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions were approximately 22,251,000 kg CO2e.

TAKKT Group has set significant reduction targets. The company aims to reduce its Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 50% by 2030, compared to a 2021 base year. They also have a near-term target to reduce emissions at their sites by 20% by 2025, also against the 2021 baseline. Furthermore, TAKKT aims to achieve complete greenhouse gas neutrality by 2045, aligning with the goal of limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius. As of 2024, a reduction of 25% in Scope 1 and 2 emissions had already been achieved compared to 2021 levels, indicating progress towards their targets. The company also previously had a goal of becoming carbon-neutral by 2025 concerning its direct and indirect emissions from the consumption of electricity, heat, and steam.
