Carbon Emissions Overview:

• 2025: Total global GHG emissions were approximately 425,536,000 kg CO2e. This includes Scope 1 emissions of roughly 53,167,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of approximately 4,598,000 kg CO2e (market-based), and Scope 3 emissions totalling around 367,770,000 kg CO2e. The largest contributors to Scope 3 emissions are purchased goods and services (approximately 269,821,000 kg CO2e), followed by employee commute (approximately 22,344,000 kg CO2e) and capital goods (approximately 24,486,000 kg CO2e).
• 2024: Total global GHG emissions were approximately 412,287,000 kg CO2e. Scope 1 emissions accounted for about 47,163,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions were around 4,649,000 kg CO2e (market-based), and Scope 3 emissions totalled approximately 360,474,000 kg CO2e.
• 2023: Total global GHG emissions were approximately 445,639,000 kg CO2e. This comprised Scope 1 emissions of roughly 39,845,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of approximately 5,419,000 kg CO2e (market-based), and Scope 3 emissions of about 400,375,000 kg CO2e.
• 2022: Total global GHG emissions were approximately 585,864,000 kg CO2e. Scope 1 emissions were around 33,345,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions were approximately 4,169,000 kg CO2e (market-based). Scope 3 data for this year was not fully detailed in the provided information.
• 2021: Scope 1 emissions were approximately 29,540,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions were around 3,986,000 kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions were not disclosed for this year.
• 2020: Scope 1 emissions were approximately 26,346,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions were around 3,896,000 kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions were not disclosed for this year.

Climate Commitments and Targets:

Kaefer SE & Co. KG has set science-based climate targets.

• Net-Zero Commitment: The company commits to achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across its value chain by 2050.
• Near-Term Target (by 2032): Kaefer aims to reduce absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions by 50.4% from a 2023 base year. Additionally, they commit to reducing absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 30.0% within the same timeframe.
• Long-Term Target (by 2050): The company aims for a 90.0% reduction in absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions from a 2023 base year, alongside a 90.0% reduction in absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 2050.

These targets are categorised as consistent with keeping global warming to 1.5°C. The specified target boundary includes land-related emissions and removals from bioenergy feedstocks.
