A significant reduction can be observed in market-based Scope-2 and Scope-3 emissions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Emissions of the Encavis Group in tonnes of CO<sub>2 <\/sub>equivalents:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Due to the acquisition of Stern Energy in 2022, direct Scope-1 emissions increased to 223 tonnes of CO<sub>2<\/sub>e (FY 2021: 39 t CO<sub>2<\/sub>e), with the increase primarily attributable to business-related travel activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In absolute terms, most of the Group&#8217;s emissions (99 percent) fall under Scope 3. This category encompasses all emissions from indirect sources that a company does not directly control. Within the Encavis Group, these emissions arise in the upstream supply chains, particularly due to the construction activities of new wind and solar parks, driving emissions upward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, these emissions are offset significantly by the CO<sub>2<\/sub>-free electricity production from the Group&#8217;s wind and solar parks, known as &#8220;avoided emissions&#8221;. In 2022, the wind and solar parks prevented the release of a total of over 1.1 million tonnes of climate-damaging greenhouse gases &#8211; a growing trend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">CO<sub>2<\/sub> savings of the Encavis Group in thousand tonnes of CO<sub>2<\/sub> equivalents:<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">https:\/\/www.encavis.com\/en\/newsroom\/downloads<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>About ENCAVIS:<\/strong><br>Encavis AG (Prime Standard; ISIN: DE0006095003; ticker symbol: ECV) is a producer of electricity from Renewable Energies listed on the MDAX of Deutsche B\u00f6rse AG.
