Alfa Laval

Alfa Laval, a Swedish machinery and equipment manufacturer, reported total emissions of approximately 45.6 billion kg CO2e in 2023. This included Scope 1 emissions of 17.6 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 market-based emissions of 6.5 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions of approximately 45.6 billion kg CO2e. The largest contributor to Scope 3 emissions was the use of sold products, accounting for approximately 44.1 billion kg CO2e.

Alfa Laval has set ambitious climate commitments validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The company aims to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across its entire value chain by 2050, from a 2020 base year.

Near-term targets include:

• A 95% reduction in absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 2030, compared to a 2020 baseline.
• A 50% reduction in absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 2030, compared to a 2020 baseline.

Alfa Laval also aims to increase its annual sourcing of renewable electricity from 80% in 2020 to 100% by 2030. The company has already achieved a 52% reduction in operational Scope 1 and 2 emissions since 2020, surpassing its 2023 target. Furthermore, Alfa Laval has committed to becoming carbon neutral by 2030 for its Scope 1 and 2 emissions.

Long-term targets include maintaining at least a 95% absolute reduction in Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions from 2030 through 2050, and reducing absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 95% by 2050, both against a 2020 baseline.
