SGL Carbon, headquartered in Germany, reported total emissions of approximately 567 million kg CO2e in 2024. This included about 65 million kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, approximately 174 million kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions (location-based), and around 364 million kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. Key contributors to Scope 3 emissions in 2024 were purchased goods and services (approximately 194 million kg CO2e), and fuel- and energy-related activities (around 61 million kg CO2e).

Looking back, SGL Carbon's Scope 1 and 2 emissions (location-based) were approximately 239 million kg CO2e in 2024, a decrease from roughly 295 million kg CO2e in 2023 and about 326 million kg CO2e in 2022. The company aims to halve its total Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 2025, compared to a 2019 baseline. This target was set in 2021 and explicitly states a 50% reduction for both Scope 1 and Scope 2. More granularly, SGL Carbon has set near-term absolute reduction targets to cut Scope 1 GHG emissions by 6% and Scope 2 GHG emissions by 62% by 2025, relative to 2019. Furthermore, the company has a long-term goal to achieve climate neutrality by 2038, aiming for a 100% reduction in Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions.

SGL Carbon also has intensity reduction targets for Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, aiming for a 10% reduction in energy intensity by 2027 compared to 2017 levels.
