2024
2023
Summary Because of the switch to the GHG Protocol and with the calculation based for the first time on new standards, 2023 will apply as the base year with effect from this report. It will also be possible to record Scope 3 emissions along the value chain in the future. In Scope 1 (direct emissions), Gebrüder Weiss reduced its emissions by 26 percent in 2024, primarily as a result of the use of HVO100, a sustainable, plant oil-based substitute for diesel. Emissions in Scope 2 (indirect emissions from purchased energy) are increasing slightly, as all global Gebrüder Weiss locations are now fully recorded. The Scope 3 assessment (emissions in the supply chain) remains complex, as large volumes of data have to be pro- cessed and available information has to be improved.
16,844 t CO 2 e total Scope 1 emissions (direct emissions of the company)
22,829 t CO 2 e total Scope 1 emissions (direct emissions of the company)
18.53 t CO 2 e biogenic emissions
6.22 t CO 2 e biogenic emissions
3,988 t CO 2 e total Scope 2 emissions (indirect emissions from the consumption of purchased energy)
3,698 t CO 2 e total Scope 2 emissions (indirect emissions from the consumption of purchased energy)
In land transport, the improved quality of the data in Scope 3 resulted in a 33 percent increase in recorded emissions.
In Air & Sea, an increase of 1.1 million tonnes of CO 2 results from the shipment emissions, which were recorded for the first time. Overall, Gebrüder Weiss is well on the way to achieving its sustainability targets in Scope 1 and 2. In Scope 3, the current focus is on increasing transparency through improved data collection – to provide a basis for targeted reduction mea- sures.
1,673,476 t CO 2 e total Scope 3 emissions (emissions along the value chain)
1,621.71 t CO 2 e biogenic emissions
