The 5 steps of climate action

The following 5 steps are required for ClimatePartner certification:

Step 1
Carbon footprint icon

Carbon footprints

The corporate carbon footprint (CCF) is the starting point for climate action. The CCF gives you clear insights into a company's greenhouse gas emissions - for example, you can identify where the carbon hotspots are and define emission reduction measures accordingly to mitigate the company's climate impact effectively.

This carbon footprint calculation covers data from the period January 2022 - December 2022

Carbon footprint (in CO₂ equivalents):

231.42 Kg CO₂

Included in the carbon footprint

Different emission sources, called scopes, are covered by the carbon footprint. All scope 1 and scope 2 emissions are included in this carbon footprint, while only applicable scope 3 emissions are included. The scopes are defined as follows:
  • Scope 1 includes all directly generated emissions that a company controls, for example fuel for company cars.
  • Scope 2 includes indirect emissions caused by purchased energy, for example electricity.
  • Scope 3 includes indirect emissions from a company's activities, which may cover, for example, employee commuting, logistics, and the production of raw materials.
Scope 3 emissions included in this carbon footprint:
Waste generated in operations
Employee commuting
Business travel
Fuel- and energy-related activities not included in scope 1 or scope 2
Step 2
reduction targets icon

Reduction targets

Reduction targets are an essential part of a company's climate action strategy. By setting concrete targets, companies define the areas, scope, and timeframe for implementing reduction measures.*

Scope 1 and 2 emissions

Scope 1 emissions include all emissions that are either directly generated by the company or under direct control of the company, for example fuel for company cars. Scope 2 emissions are indirect emissions generated by purchased energy, such as electricity.

Scope 3 emissions

Scope 3 emissions come from all company activities that are not directly under its control, for example, employee commuting and business travel, as well as activities that occur throughout the company's value chain.

Reduction measures

To meet their reduction targets, it is important for companies to plan and implement concrete measures to achieve effective climate action. This section shows you the reduction measures that have been implemented.*

*A consumption greater than 100% indicates the energy is fed into the electricity grid and can be used by other households and companies.
Step 4
Impact contribution icon

Climate projects

This company financially contributes to certified climate projects during the certificiation period (1). This contribution is intended to accelerate collective efforts towards achieving global net-zero emissions and (3) supports the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Supported projects undergo regular audits by independent third parties to ensure transparency and accountability. However, this financial contribution is not included in the associated greenhouse gas (GHG) inventory nor considered towards meeting decarbonization goals (2). Therefore, it does not impact the carbon footprint of the certified product, company or service.

Transparency

An essential part of a company's climate action journey is to make its ambition and achievements visible. The ClimatePartner label is a core component that businesses use to make their climate data and actions fully accessible and transparent to their customers.
