GHG emissions and Carbon intensity
Deutsche Bank reported Total CO2e Emissions - Market-Based Scope 1 + Scope 2 for the twelve months ending 30 September 2021 at 80 Kt (-38 /-32.3% y-o-y). At the same time, carbon intensity .
Deutsche Bank's Scope 3 emissions decreased to 3 Kt (
The company is committed to achieving carbon neutrality for all Scopes by 2050, which translates into the estimated reduction of -2.9 Kt per annum over the period of FY2022 - FY2050. This target, however, has not been recognised as science-based (and as aligned with Paris Agreement) by the SBTi.
Deutsche Bank aims to achive carbon neutrality across its entire value chain (all Scopes) in 2050. Companies normally become carbon neutral with the help of the acquisition of carbon offsets rather than absolute reductions in their own greenhouse emissions. Also, carbon neutrality does not include non-CO2 GHG emissions.
