In 2022, Plantasjen reported total carbon emissions of approximately 11,167,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 732,000 kg CO2e, primarily from stationary combustion (566,900 kg CO2e) and mobile combustion (164,800 kg CO2e). Scope 2 emissions totalled around 435,500 kg CO2e, with purchased electricity accounting for 343,300 kg CO2e. The majority of their emissions stem from Scope 3, which reached approximately 9,999,000 kg CO2e, largely due to upstream transportation and distribution (about 9,674,000 kg CO2e). Comparatively, in 2021, Plantasjen's total emissions were about 15,117,000 kg CO2e, indicating a significant reduction in emissions of approximately 3,950,000 kg CO2e year-on-year. This trend continues from 2020, when emissions were reported at approximately 29,774,000 kg CO2e, and from 2019, which saw total emissions of about 32,345,000 kg CO2e. Despite these reductions, Plantasjen has not publicly committed to specific science-based targets or reduction initiatives, as indicated by the absence of SBTi reduction targets or documented climate pledges. The company operates independently without cascading emissions data from a parent organisation, maintaining its own reporting standards. Overall, Plantasjen's emissions data reflects a positive trajectory towards reducing its carbon footprint, although further commitments and initiatives would enhance its climate strategy.
