Every operative group to set sustainability goals during the financial year 2023/24.
Reducing the carbon emissions by 45.0% by FY2030 from a FY2021 base year*. Embracer Group also commits to reduce scope 3 GHG emissions covering purchased goods and services, fuel and energy-related activities, upstream transportation and distribution, business travel and employee commuting 51.6% per MSEK value added within the same timeframe.
We proudly announce that our sustainability commitment is validated and approved by the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi). This validation encompasses our absolute reduction targets for greenhouse gas emissions, addressing both direct and indirect emissions (Scope 1 and 2) and emissions from our supply chain (Scope 3). SBTi has officially confirmed that these targets align with the 1.5°C pathway, the primary objective outlined in the Paris Agreement.
Establishing absolute emission targets provides a clear roadmap for managing carbon dioxide emissions. Using 2021 as the baseline year, we have set ambitious goals to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 45% and to achieve a minimum 51.6% reduction in Scope 3 emissions by 2030. This commitment reflects our dedication to contributing significantly to a sustainable, low-carbon future.
*The target boundary includes biogenic land-related emissions and removals from bioenergy feedstocks.
