Corporate Carbon Footprint October 23rd, 2023 | Stefanie Geldbach Dr. | News EN The time has finally come – our company’s greenhouse gas balances for 2020 and 2021 have been finalised and verified by TÜV Süd. Our company’s greenhouse gas emissions have been recorded since 2020. A report on our corporate carbon footprint is prepared annually for this purpose; 2021 is used as the base year. The calculation is carried out in accordance with the DIN EN ISO 14064-1 standard, whereby the emissions are divided into Scope 1, 2 and 3 in accordance with the Greenhouse Gas Protocol. Scope 1 emissions describe all emissions that arise directly in our company, e.g. our vehicle fleet or gas used for energy supply. Indirect emissions from purchased energy, such as our electricity, are summarised under Scope 2 emissions. All other emissions, e.g. from purchased goods, transport, business trips and commuter traffic, belong to Scope 3 emissions. The reports and the associated verification statements can be found in the download area of our website. The following emissions result for the two years when all scopes are considered: 2020: 15,990 tonnes of CO2e 2021: 18,527 tonnes of CO2e
