This marks a notable increase in emissions compared to previous years, with total emissions in 2022 being about 54,936,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 452,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 33,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3. Over the years, Velesto has demonstrated a commitment to monitoring and reporting its emissions, with a focus on Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions. However, there are currently no specified reduction targets or climate pledges in place, indicating a potential area for future improvement in their sustainability strategy. The company has disclosed emissions data for all three scopes, reflecting a comprehensive approach to understanding its carbon footprint. Velesto's emissions intensity has shown variability, with the company reporting a Scope 1 and 2 emission intensity of 53 kg CO2e per USD of revenue in 2023, down from 95 kg CO2e per USD in 2022. This suggests a trend towards improved efficiency relative to revenue generation, although the overall emissions figures indicate a need for further action to align with global climate goals.
