Insights into Petrobras's Greenhouse Gas Emissions Pathways
As of 2024, Petrobras 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.abc
Does Petrobras have a target to reduce the emissions from its operations?
As of 2024, Petrobras has set a target to reduce its operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, specifically those from Scope 1 and Scope 2 sources.abc
Petrobras's most ambitious operational target is to reduce these emissions by 69.23% by 2030, compared to a baseline of 0.001 Metric Tonnes of CH4 (mtCH4) per Other Unit (Unlisted) of Methane Produced in 2015.abc
Petrobras has already surpassed its operational emissions reduction target, with 2024 levels falling below the 2030 value, achieving its climate goal ahead of schedule.abc
