The 5 steps of climate action

The following 5 steps are required for ClimatePartner certification:

Step 1
Carbon footprint icon

Carbon footprints

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

This carbon footprint calculation covers data from the period January 2023 - December 2023

Carbon footprint (in CO₂ equivalents):

199,000 Kg CO₂

These are the categories of emissions required for the calculation:

Electricity

Electricity consumed to provide the service

Heating

Heat consumed to provide the service.

Cooling

Cooling used to provide the service

Vehicle fleet

Fuel and/or electricity consumption of vehicles and machines used to provide the service.

Print products and office paper

Print products required for the service and their mailing or shipment (e.g., marketing materials) and office paper required for the provision of the service.

Fuel- and energy related activities

Extraction, production, and transport of fuels used to generate energy as well as transmission and distribution losses in the grid.

Consumables

Consumables directly needed to provide the service (e.g., detergent for cleaning services)

Travel of employees/contractors

Travel of employees and contractors, including overnight stays, to provide the service.

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.

This company has committed to reducing its emissions by

42%

Time period

2020 to 2030

Science-based target

Yes, matching the 1.5 °C ambition level

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.

Scope 3 emissions included in this reduction target:

Business travel
Downstream transportation and distribution
Employee commuting
End-of-life treatment of sold products
Fuel- and energy-related activities not included in scope 1 or scope 2
Purchased goods and services
Upstream transportation and distribution
Waste generated in operations

Step 3
Reduction Measures Icon

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.*

Service-related reduction measures

This section shows you the reduction measures that the company has implemented for the ClimatePartner-certified service.

Energy efficiency measures

Energy efficiency measures are implemented to provide the service.

check icon

Green electricity

100% of the electricity used to provide the service is green electricity.

check icon

Electric or hydrogen vehicles

65% of the materials are transported by vehicles using alternatives to fossil fuel-powered combustion engines (hydrogen, electricity, etc.) from the supplier.

check icon

Waste reduction strategy

A strategy for reducing operational waste is implemented to provide the service.

check icon

Supply chain engagement for outsourced logistics

50% of the company's outbound logistics provider have set reduction targets and demonstrated emission reductions.

check icon

Low-emission fuels

Low-emission fuels (e.g. biofuels) are used for service-related travel.

check icon

Company-related reduction measures

This section shows you the reduction measures that the company has implemented throughout their operations.

100%

of the total electricity consumption is purchased green electricity

*This section contains third party content, which was provided by the certified company to ClimatePartner.
*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 for a specific amount of emissions. The projects are regularly audited by independent third parties, and they also contribute to achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

Number of projects supported:

3

Climate projects were financed for the following amount of emissions:

199,000 Kg CO₂ *

* The amount of GHG emissions shown for the financial contribution to climate projects (step 4) may be different from the total carbon footprint (step 1). Differences may result from an allocation of GHG emissions between multiple certifications for the same company (e. g. certification of the company as well as certain products). Furthermore, we recommend companies to add a 10 percent safety margin to the carbon footprint to address uncertainties related to the underlying data. Also, companies may source products or services for which a financial contribution has already been made via a third party, which results in a lower financial contribution via ClimatePartner.
