This figure includes 2,668,280 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 794,400 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, and a significant 98,718,330 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions, which encompasses areas such as purchased goods and services, capital goods, and employee commuting.

This indicates a reduction in total emissions from 2021 to 2022. Despite these figures, Va Q Tec has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or any formal climate pledges. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while the company is actively monitoring its emissions, it may not yet have committed to formalised climate action strategies. Overall, Va Q Tec's emissions profile highlights the significant impact of Scope 3 emissions, which represent the majority of their carbon footprint, underscoring the importance of addressing these areas in future sustainability efforts.
