In 2025, the total operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of Elisa amounted to 36,616 metric tons of CO2 equivalent. This figure includes both direct emissions from owned or controlled sources (Scope 1) and indirect emissions from purchased energy (Scope 2).a
Compared to 2024, the total operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of Elisa decreased by 18.54%, showing that the company has made progress in taking action to reduce the climate impact of its operations.a
In 2025, the total Scope 1 emissions of Elisa were 1,458 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e).a
Since 2020, Elisa's Scope 1 emissions have increased by 118.92%, reflecting a rising long-term trend in Scope 1 emissions over time.ac
Compared to the previous year (2024), Elisa's Scope 1 emissions increased by 57.62%, suggesting that the company faced challenges in reducing emissions from its directly owned or controlled operations.a
In 2025, Elisa reported Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of 485 tCO₂e using the market-based method and 35,158 tCO₂e using the location-based method.a
Since 2020, Elisa's Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions (Location-Based) have decreased by 41.17%, reflecting a declining long-term trend in Scope 2 emissions over time.ac
Compared to the previous year (2024), Elisa's Scope 2 emissions (Location-Based) fell by 20.14% in 2025, showing that the company has made progress in taking action to reduce the climate impact of its energy consumption.a
In 2025, Elisa reported its Scope 2 emissions using the market-based method and using the location-based method.a
In 2025, Elisa reported 237,759 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e) of Scope 3 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, representing indirect emissions across its upstream and downstream value chain.a
The 2025 disclosure of Elisa includes a breakdown across 9 of the 15 Scope 3 categories defined by the GHG Protocol, matching the level of disclosure in 2024, demonstrating consistent Scope 3 emissions reporting coverage year over year.a
In 2025, Elisa reported total Scope 3 emissions of 237,759 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e).a
Approximately 72.47% of these emissions originated from upstream activities such as purchased goods and capital goods, while 27.53% came from downstream activities like product use, distribution, and end-of-life treatment.a
Since 2020, Elisa's Scope 3 emissions have increased by 29.36%, reflecting a rising long-term trend in Scope 3 emissions over time.ac
Compared to the previous year (2024), Elisa's Scope 3 emissions remained relatively stable, indicating that Elisa's emissions have plateaued with no significant change in its value chain footprint.a
In 2025, Elisa reported emissions for 9 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 2025, the largest contributors to Elisa's Scope 3 emissions were:a
In 2025, Elisa reported Scope 1 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of 1,458 tCO₂e and total revenues of USD 2,654 millions. This translates into an emissions intensity of 0.55 tCO₂e per millions USD.a
In 2025, Elisa reported a Scope 1 emissions intensity of 0.55 tCO₂e per millions USD. Compared to the peer group median of 1.76, this places the company below its industry benchmark, indicating it is more carbon-efficient than most competitors.a
In 2025, Elisa ranked 7 out of 22 companies in its industry peer group, based on Scope 1 emissions intensity (measured in tCO₂e per millions USD).a
Elisa is therefore positioned in the mid-range of its industry, neither a clear leader nor a laggard in carbon efficiency.a
In 2025, Elisa reported a total carbon footprint of 274,375 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e) across Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions. This represents a 3.87% decrease compared to 2024, indicating progress in reducing its overall greenhouse gas output.a
The largest contributor to Elisa's total carbon footprint was Scope 3 emissions, accounting for 86.65% of the company's total carbon footprint, followed by Scope 2 emissions at 12.81%.a
