Insights into Heidelberg Materials's Greenhouse Gas Emissions Pathways

As of 2024, Heidelberg Materials has set greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction targets that cover both its operational emissions (Scope 1 and 2) and value chain emissions (Scope 3), offering a comprehensive view of its total carbon footprint.

Does Heidelberg Materials have a target to reduce the emissions from its operations?

As of 2024, Heidelberg Materials has set a target to reduce its operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, specifically those from Scope 1 and Scope 2 sources.

Heidelberg Materials's most ambitious operational target is to reduce these emissions by 65% by 2030, compared to a baseline of 0.044 Metric Tonnes of CO2 equivalent (mtCO2e) per Metric Tonne (mt) of Cementitious Material from Unspecified Activities in 2020.

As of 2024, Heidelberg Materials is lagging behind on its operational emissions reduction target, having achieved 17.48% of the planned reduction.
