The 5 steps of climate action
The following 5 steps are required for ClimatePartner certification:
Scroll down to see how the requirements were met.
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 2023Carbon 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.
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
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 included in this reduction target:
45%
Metric tonnes CO₂e per unit revenue
Time period
2020 to 2030
Science-based target
Yes, matching the 1.5 °C ambition level
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.
Green electricity
100% of the electricity used to provide the service is green electricity.
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.
Waste reduction strategy
A strategy for reducing operational waste is implemented to provide the service.
Supply chain engagement for outsourced logistics
50% of the company's outbound logistics provider have set reduction targets and demonstrated emission reductions.
Low-emission fuels
Low-emission fuels (e.g. biofuels) are used for service-related travel.
Reduced material usage
Resources are saved by switching from a physical product component to a digital one.
Energy efficiency measures
Reduced electricity usage due to energy-saving mode.
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
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.
Number of projects supported:
