Verbund

Verbund, an electricity company headquartered in Austria (AT), reported total carbon emissions of approximately 4.21 billion kg CO2e in 2025. This includes Scope 1 emissions of approximately 857 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of about 106.3 million kg CO2e (location-based), and Scope 3 emissions of approximately 3.12 billion kg CO2e.

Looking back, in 2024, Verbund's total emissions were around 5.05 billion kg CO2e, comprising approximately 499.6 million kg CO2e in Scope 1, about 116.8 million kg CO2e in Scope 2 (location-based), and roughly 4.32 billion kg CO2e in Scope 3. In 2023, total emissions were around 4.88 billion kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at approximately 292.3 million kg CO2e and Scope 3 at about 4.31 billion kg CO2e.

Verbund has set several climate commitments. The company aims to reduce absolute Scope 1 emissions by 16% between 2015 and 2030. They also target a 65% reduction in emissions by 2030 from a 1990 baseline. Furthermore, Verbund is committed to reducing absolute Scope 1, 2, and 3 GHG emissions (excluding Category 2) by 74% between 2020 and 2030. This includes an intensity-based reduction of 40% in Scope 1 emissions from electricity generation and a 90% reduction in the intensity of Scope 3 emissions from electricity sales by 2030, using a 2020 baseline. Long-term, Verbund targets an 88% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2040 and aims for net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, seeking at least a 90% reduction in GHG emissions with unavoidable residual emissions eliminated.
