In 2023, Verkor reported total carbon emissions of approximately 21,186,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 100 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 301,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, and a significant 20,884,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. The Scope 3 emissions breakdown reveals major contributions from purchased goods and services (approximately 13,992,280 kg CO2e) and capital goods (about 6,056,360 kg CO2e). In 2022, Verkor's total emissions were approximately 522,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 70 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions at 130,100 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions at 392,000 kg CO2e. This indicates a substantial increase in emissions from 2022 to 2023. Despite the lack of specific reduction targets or initiatives disclosed, Verkor's emissions data highlights the company's significant carbon footprint, particularly in Scope 3 emissions, which are often the most challenging to manage. The absence of formal climate pledges or reduction targets suggests that Verkor may still be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy.
