As of 2024, Deutsche Bank has set greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction targets that cover its value chain emissions (Scope 3), without dedicated targets for its operational emissions. This indicates a focus on upstream and downstream climate impacts rather than internal operations.
As of 2024, Deutsche Bank has set a target to reduce its value chain greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, covering 1 out of the 15 Scope 3 categories defined by the GHG Protocol.
Deutsche Bank's most ambitious value chain target is to reduce these emissions by 100% by 2040, compared to a baseline of 0 Metric Tonnes of CO2 equivalent (mtCO2e) per Watt-hour (Wh) of Electricity Produced in 2021.
As of 2024, Deutsche Bank is ahead of schedule on its value chain emissions reduction target, having achieved 21.21% of the planned reduction.
