This data reflects a significant commitment to transparency in their carbon footprint across all scopes. The company has set ambitious climate commitments, aiming for net-zero emissions by 2050 across all scopes. Specific near-term targets include a 15% reduction in CO2 intensity by 2025 for both Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, and a 9% reduction in Scope 1 emissions by 2030 against a 2024 baseline. Additionally, RHI Magnesita plans to reduce Scope 2 emissions by 5% by 2030, also based on the 2024 baseline. RHI Magnesita's strategy includes implementing measures such as increased use of recycled raw materials, fuel switches, and energy efficiency improvements, which are projected to deliver an absolute reduction of around 1.5 million tonnes of CO2 emissions, or 24% of the baseline total, by 2035. The company is also focused on reducing its Scope 2 emissions to near zero by 2025. This emissions data and commitment to sustainability are not cascaded from a parent organization, as RHI Magnesita operates independently in this regard. The company’s initiatives align with industry standards and reflect a proactive approach to addressing climate change.
