Cognite's emissions data is cascaded from its parent company, Cognite AS, and reflects its commitment to transparency in climate reporting. However, there are currently no specific reduction targets or initiatives outlined in their sustainability reports. The absence of defined reduction targets suggests that Cognite is still in the process of establishing a comprehensive climate strategy. As a current subsidiary of Cognite AS, the company is part of a broader corporate family that may influence its climate commitments and reporting practices. Overall, Cognite's emissions profile highlights the importance of addressing both direct and indirect emissions as part of its sustainability efforts.
