In 2022, United Malt Group reported a greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions intensity of approximately 0.146 tonnes CO2e per tonne for Scope 1 emissions. This figure reflects the company's ongoing commitment to monitoring and managing its carbon footprint. In 2021, the emissions intensity was slightly lower at about 0.138 tonnes CO2e per tonne, indicating a stable performance in their emissions management. The company has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments, nor has it engaged with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) for formal reduction targets. This lack of defined targets suggests that while United Malt Group is aware of its emissions, it may not yet have established a comprehensive strategy for significant reductions. Overall, United Malt Group's emissions data highlights its focus on Scope 1 emissions, with a consistent approach to tracking GHG emissions intensity over recent years. However, the absence of formal reduction commitments indicates an opportunity for the company to enhance its climate strategy in alignment with industry standards.
