Climate-neutral in 2050

It is our task as construction sector to operate in a cleaner way. In recent years, at Strukton, we have taken important steps towards emission-free working and gained important experience. We have now adjusted our targets. The adjustments are based on our experiences in innovation processes and their duration. Also, we have brought our targets more in line with sector-wide programmes. In addition to scope 1 and scope 2 emissions, we have also included scope 3 emissions in the targets.

New targets for climate-neutral operations

  • We will reduce the carbon emissions resulting from business travel by 50% in 2030 compared to 2016, relative to the number of FTEs in our organisation
  • 2040 will be our first year of carbon-neutral business operations  (scope 1 and 2)
  • 2050 will be our first year of business operations with zero CO2 emissions for scope 1, scope 2, scope 3 and (if material) other influenceable emissions (OIE)

To reach our 2040 target, we will reduce our emissions by 90% and compensate the rest.

Other influenceable emissions are emissions that fall outside scope 1, scope 2 or scope 3 according to the GHG Protocol. The reason is that these are short-cyclical or occur outside the value chain of the organisation. If we can significantly influence these emissions, they are relevant for our organisation to contribute to global climate neutrality.

Roadmap

In order to achieve our objectives, we have worked out annual ambitions for each scope. The annual ambitions can be found here. We monitor and publish on the progress on these ambitions and the measures to achieve them, and continuously search for ways to move faster.

Working together

We will work together to achieve our goals. Together means with all colleagues, our clients, our suppliers and all other partners in the chain. Do you have ideas to help with that? Let us know!
