CO2 Performance Ladder
Missed the update?
As of August 2024, we are certified at tier III on the CO2 Performance Ladder. Please see our certification update for details on what the Ladder is and how we substantiate our targets for the certification. You can visit our SKAO-page to find our registration. Downloadable links are made available below, with all relevant certificates and reports.
Mid-year CO2 updates
Below, you find our first mid-year update on our mission toward a greener future. In the update, we evaluate our CO2-reducing measures implemented from January to June this year.
Since this is our first mid-year update, there are no previous reports to compare it to. Instead, we have compared the results to the averages from 2022 and 2023. Future mid-year updates will be compared against this baseline and subsequent reports.
Summarized Mid-Year results
Tracking the effects of implemented measures is crucial to understanding their impact and effectiveness. Below is an overview of our CO2 emission reduction results compared to our targets. We provide a brief recap of the goals followed by the actual results. Detailed analyses are included in our annual reports, available for download in PDF below.
Our goal was to implement HVO30 fleet-wide by January 2024 and achieve a 28% reduction in scope 1 and 2 CO2 emissions. Unfortunately, HVO-fuel is not always available in some ports. To compensate, we began occasionally bunkering HVO100, striving to achieve the equivalent of CO2-reduction from HVO30.
In total, we used 2 million liters of HVO fuel and 1.26 million liters of Marine Gasoil, amounting to approximately 3.3 million liters of fuel. These fuels emitted 5.1 tons and 4.4 tons of CO2, respectively. Despite a 7% increase in CO2 emissions in mid-2023, we managed a 12.5% reduction so far.
CO2 emissions from company cars have decreased by 32% since 2022. Energy consumption at the office and emissions from business travel have remained relatively stable. Flight emissions have been more accurately tracked, nearly doubling thanks to improved record-keeping and the inclusion of freelance personnel, ensuring a more comprehensive and transparent reporting process.
The results of the second half of 2024 will be published here in Q1 of 2025.
