Ap4's reported carbon emissions

In 2022, Ap4, headquartered in Sweden, reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,380,000,000 kg CO2e. This marked a decrease from 2021, when emissions were about 1,420,000,000 kg CO2e, and a significant reduction from 2020's total of approximately 1,840,000,000 kg CO2e. The emissions data does not specify Scope 1, 2, or 3 categories, and there are no disclosed reduction targets or climate pledges from the organisation. Ap4 has not set any Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) reduction targets, nor does it have documented reduction initiatives. The organisation's carbon intensity metrics indicate a trend towards lower emissions per unit of revenue, with a carbon intensity of 0.0032 kg CO2e per SEK in 2022, down from 0.0037 kg CO2e per SEK in 2021 and 0.0049 kg CO2e per SEK in 2020. Overall, while Ap4 has shown a positive trajectory in reducing its total emissions over the past few years, it currently lacks formal commitments or targets to further enhance its climate strategy.
