Scope 2
After analysing our Scope 1 and Scope 2 footprint for
2024, it is essential to continuously monitor developments in these emissions. Ongoing monitoring is crucial
for assessing our environmental impact and progress towards sustainability goals. It enables us to identify areas
for improvement and potential risks, as well as to plan a
more targeted and effective strategy.
A closer look at the distribution of Scope 1 emissions
between 2023 and 2024 provides a more nuanced picture.
While total emissions from mobile combustion (e.g. diesel
and petrol) fell slightly from 62.57 to 59.53 tonnes, natural
gas consumption more than doubled – from 7.74 to 18.63
tonnes. This indicates a higher heating demand and points
to a clear area of focus for emission reduction.
In contrast, Scope 2 emissions have shown a consistent
decline – from 30 tonnes in 2021 to 23 tonnes in 2024,
corresponding to a 23% reduction. This demonstrates the
success of initiatives such as the purchase of greener
electricity and improved energy ef昀椀ciency in our facilities, fully aligned with our goal of a low-emission energy
transition.
As shown in the development chart, Scope 1 emissions
have displayed a steady increase – from 52 tonnes in
2021 to 78 tonnes in 2024, representing a 56% rise over
four years. This trend can be attributed to increased
production activity and highlights the need for a deeper
analysis of operational emissions and potential reduction
measures or alternative solutions.
Although the decrease in diesel consumption is positive, the increase in natural gas emissions shows a shift
that could counteract overall reduction targets. This
underscores the need for further initiatives, including a
transition to more climate-friendly heating sources and a
continued effort to improve the energy ef昀椀ciency of the
vehicle 昀氀eet.
Overall, the development shows that progress in Scope 2
contributes positively to reducing STEFFCA’s total climate
footprint, while the increase in Scope 1 emissions partially
offsets these gains. This highlights the importance of an
integrated and balanced reduction strategy that addresses
both direct and indirect emission sources.
