In 2019, Ulster Bank reported total carbon emissions of approximately 4,551,000 kg CO2e, comprising 1,111,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 3,441,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. This data reflects the bank's operational footprint and is part of its commitment to transparency in environmental impact. In 2018, the bank's emissions were slightly higher, with a total of about 4,640,000 kg CO2e, including 947,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 4,150,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2. Ulster Bank's emissions data is cascaded from its parent company, NatWest Group plc, indicating a corporate family relationship that influences its climate strategy. However, there are currently no specific reduction targets or climate pledges disclosed by Ulster Bank, which suggests a need for further commitment to measurable sustainability goals. Overall, while Ulster Bank has made strides in reporting its emissions, the absence of defined reduction initiatives highlights an opportunity for the bank to enhance its climate commitments and align with industry standards for sustainability.
