TEKNOR APEX's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, TEKNOR APEX reported carbon emissions of approximately 121,000,000 kg CO2e, encompassing both Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, which were equal at this level. This marks a significant reduction from previous years, with emissions peaking at about 163,357,000 kg CO2e in 2020. Over the years, the company has demonstrated a downward trend in emissions, decreasing from about 150,124,000 kg CO2e in 2015 to the latest figure. Despite these reductions, TEKNOR APEX has not publicly committed to specific science-based targets or formal climate pledges. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while the company is actively reducing its carbon footprint, it may not yet be aligned with industry-standard climate initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Overall, TEKNOR APEX's commitment to reducing its carbon emissions reflects a proactive approach to climate responsibility, although further transparency regarding specific targets and initiatives would enhance its sustainability profile.
