Werfen's reported carbon emissions
In 2021, Werfen reported total carbon emissions of approximately 582,150 kg CO2e, with emissions distributed across various scopes: 271,710 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 1,890 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 308,550 kg CO2e from Scope 3. This data reflects the company's operational footprint in the UK, where it generated revenue of about USD 2.1 billion. Comparatively, in 2020, Werfen's emissions were significantly lower, with Scope 1 emissions at 218,610 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at 39,880 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at 3,430 kg CO2e. This indicates a notable increase in emissions from 2020 to 2021, particularly in Scope 1 and Scope 3 categories. Despite the increase in emissions, Werfen has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or SBTi commitments. The company does not appear to inherit emissions data from a parent organization, maintaining its own reporting standards. Werfen's climate commitments and strategies remain unclear, but the company is actively monitoring its carbon footprint as part of its operational practices.
