Qt's reported carbon emissions
In 2022, Qt reported total carbon emissions of approximately 122,000 kg CO2e, with a significant portion, about 290,000 kg CO2e, attributed to Scope 3 emissions from business travel. This indicates a growing concern for the environmental impact of their operations, particularly in the area of travel-related emissions. In 2021, Qt's emissions data revealed that they had Scope 3 emissions of about 17,000 kg CO2e from business travel, highlighting an increase in emissions in the following year. The company's revenue for 2022 was approximately USD 176.6 million, which correlates with their emissions data, suggesting a carbon intensity of about 0.00761 kg CO2e per USD of revenue. Despite these figures, Qt has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. This lack of defined climate commitments may reflect a broader industry trend where companies are still in the early stages of formalising their climate strategies. As a company headquartered in Finland (FI), Qt is positioned within a region that increasingly prioritises sustainability and climate action.
