Since 2019, Air France KLM's Scope 3 emissions have increased by 55.4%, reflecting a rising long-term trend in Scope 3 emissions over time.a
Compared to the previous year (2023), Air France KLM's Scope 3 emissions increased by 67.19%, suggesting that the company faced challenges in reducing emissions across its value chain.a
In 2024, Air France KLM reported emissions for 7 out of the 15 Scope 3 categories defined by the GHG Protocol.a
This partial disclosure allows for some insight into the company's indirect impacts.
In 2024, the largest contributors to Air France KLM's Scope 3 emissions were:a
In 2024, Air France KLM reported Scope 1 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of 25,727,000 tCO₂e and total revenues of USD 32,737 millions. This translates into an emissions intensity of 785.88 tCO₂e per millions USD.a
In 2024, Air France KLM reported a Scope 1 emissions intensity of 785.88 tCO₂e per millions USD. Compared to the peer group median of 1,000.79, this places the company below its industry benchmark, indicating it is more carbon-efficient than most competitors.a
In 2024, Air France KLM ranked 8 out of 25 companies in its industry peer group, based on Scope 1 emissions intensity (measured in tCO₂e per millions USD).a
Air France KLM is therefore positioned in the mid-range of its industry, neither a clear leader nor a laggard in carbon efficiency.a
In 2024, Air France KLM reported a total carbon footprint of 36,972,000 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e) across Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions. This represents a 17.52% increase compared to 2023, suggesting a rise in emissions across its operations or value chain.a
The largest contributor to Air France KLM's total carbon footprint was Scope 1 emissions, accounting for 69.59% of the company's total carbon footprint, followed by Scope 3 emissions at 30.29%.a
