Insights into Lanxess's Greenhouse Gas Emissions Pathways
As of 2023, Lanxess 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 Lanxess have a target to reduce the emissions from its operations?
As of 2023, Lanxess has set a target to reduce its operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, specifically those from Scope 1 and Scope 2 sources.
Lanxess's most ambitious operational target is to reduce these emissions by 80% by 2030, compared to a baseline of 6,500,000 Metric Tonnes of CO2 equivalent (mtCO2e) in 2004.
As of 2023, Lanxess is ahead of schedule on its operational emissions reduction target, having achieved 91.88% of the planned reduction.
Lanxess's Operational (Scope 1+2) Emissions Pathway
Does Lanxess have a target to reduce the emissions from its value chain?
As of 2023, Lanxess 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.
Lanxess's most ambitious value chain target is to reduce these emissions by 60% by 2030, compared to a baseline of 27,000,000 Metric Tonnes of CO2 equivalent (mtCO2e) in 2015.
Lanxess has already surpassed its value chain emissions reduction target, with 2023 levels falling below the 2030 value, achieving its climate goal ahead of schedule.
