GHG emissions and Carbon intensity
Arkema reported Total CO2e Emissions - Market-Based Scope 1 + Scope 2 for the twelve months ending 31 December 2021 at 3,117 Kt (-511 /-14.1% y-o-y). Also positively, carbon intensity tumbled to 276 t (-117 /-29.8% y-o-y).
Arkema's Scope 3 emissions grew to 12,240 Kt (
The company is committed to reducing Scope 1 + 2 by 38% by 2030 from a base year 2015, which translates into the estimated reduction of -50 Kt per annum over the period of FY2022 - FY2030. This target, however, has not been recognised as science-based (and as aligned with Paris Agreement) by the SBTi.
Arkema also has a science-based goal that, however, does not appear to explicitly target a company-wide reduction in emissions in absolute terms. Arkema commits to reduce absolute scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions 48.5% by 2030 from a 2019 base year.* Arkema also commits to reduce absolute scope 3 GHG emissions 54% within the same timeframe.* * The target boundary includes biogenic land-related emissions and removals from bioenergy feedstocks."
