Insights into Munich Re's Greenhouse Gas Emissions Pathways
As of 2024, Munich Re 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.ab
Does Munich Re have a target to reduce the emissions from its value chain?
As of 2024, Munich Re 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.ab
Munich Re's most ambitious value chain target is to reduce these emissions by 35% by 2025, compared to a baseline of 512,303 Metric Tonnes of CO2 equivalent (mtCO2e) in 2019.ab
Munich Re has already surpassed its value chain emissions reduction target, with 2024 levels falling below the 2025 value, achieving its climate goal ahead of schedule.ab
