Within this total, Scope 1 emissions were approximately 6 million kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions were about 4.9 million kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions accounted for the majority, totalling approximately 150.4 million kg CO2e. The largest contributors to Scope 3 emissions in 2023 were purchased goods and services, at about 92.5 million kg CO2e, and capital goods, at approximately 45.3 million kg CO2e.

World Energy has established climate commitments, including a near-term target to reduce its Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 50% by 2030, measured against a 2021 baseline. Furthermore, the company aims for net-zero carbon emissions across its operations and value chain by 2050.

Historical emissions data shows significantly higher figures in previous years, with total emissions recorded at approximately 31.5 billion kg CO2e in 2020, 33.5 billion kg CO2e in 2018, and 32.5 billion kg CO2e in 2016. Data prior to 2023 indicates that comprehensive Scope 1 and 2 emissions data was not disclosed, with reports often focusing on upstream emissions.
