Insights into Elkem's Greenhouse Gas Emissions Pathways
As of 2024, Elkem 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
Does Elkem have a target to reduce the emissions from its operations?
As of 2024, Elkem has set a target to reduce its operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, specifically those from Scope 1 and Scope 2 sources.a
Elkem's most ambitious operational target is to reduce these emissions by 25% by 2030, compared to a baseline of 3,360,000 Metric Tonnes of CO2 equivalent (mtCO2e) in 2022.a
As of 2024, Elkem is on track to meet its operational emissions reduction target, having achieved 20.24% of the planned reduction.a
Elkem's Operational (Scope 1+2) Emissions Pathway
Does Elkem have a target to reduce its total carbon footprint?
As of 2024, Elkem has set a target to reduce its total carbon footprint, specifically those from Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3 sources.a
Elkem's most ambitious carbon footprint target is to reduce its scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions from a baseline of 0.007 Metric Tonnes of CO2 equivalent (mtCO2e) per Kilogram (kg) of Unspecified Product Produced/Manufactured in 2022, by 32% by 2030.a
Instead of reducing total carbon footprint, Elkem has increased them, with 2024 levels exceeding those of the 2022 baseline, placing the company well behind its reduction target.a
