Insights into Carlsberg's Greenhouse Gas Emissions Pathways
As of 2024, Carlsberg has set greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction targets that cover its operational emissions (Scope 1 and 2), but not its value chain emissions (Scope 3). This means its reduction efforts currently focus on direct and purchased energy emissions. a b
Does Carlsberg have a target to reduce the emissions from its operations?
As of 2024, Carlsberg has set a target to reduce its operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, specifically those from Scope 1 and Scope 2 sources. a b
Carlsberg's most ambitious operational target is to reduce these emissions by 100% by 2030, compared to a baseline of 697,000 Metric Tonnes of CO2 equivalent (mtCO2e) in 2015. a b
As of 2024, Carlsberg is lagging behind on its operational emissions reduction target, having achieved 57.82% of the planned reduction. a b
Carlsberg's Operational (Scope 1+2) Emissions Pathway
Does Carlsberg have a target to reduce its total carbon footprint?
As of 2024, Carlsberg has set a target to reduce its total carbon footprint, specifically those from Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3 sources. a b
Carlsberg's most ambitious carbon footprint target is to reduce its scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions from a baseline of 0.001 Metric Tonnes of CO2 equivalent (mtCO2e) per Liter (l) of Beer Produced/Manufactured in 2015, by 30% by 2030. a b
Instead of reducing total carbon footprint, Carlsberg has increased them, with 2024 levels exceeding those of the 2015 baseline, placing the company well behind its reduction target. a b
