CLIMATE & ENVIRONMENT
Frode Laursen’s Scope 2 emissions account for 2% of our total CO2e emissions,
and cover emissions at our locations in Denmark, Sweden, Germany and Finland.
By definition, the idea behind our multi-share warehouse solution is sustainable: Shared facilities save resources – both for transport and at the logistics
centres. Nevertheless, we have more than 629,000 square metres of warehouse
and office buildings, so it is extremely important for Frode Laursen to find the best
way of constructing and operating the logistics centres.
We are constantly striving to reduce our energy consumption and our environmental impact.
Unfortunately, our Scope 2 CO2e emissions increased in 2023 after we chose to
do without green electricity certificates for all our logistics centres. In everything
we do, we are careful to take action where it makes most sense, and we have
deemed that green electricity certificates do not sufficiently support the green
transition. Instead, we are busy looking at alternative and better ways of securing
green power, just as we are accelerating the development of our solar panel
projects. We currently have solar panel installations at Jyderup in Denmark and
Åstorp in Sweden, but we expect more projects to be launched in 2024.
Until these projects are implemented, customers who wish can still store their
goods using green electricity supplied via green electricity certificates. Otherwise,
our logistics centre in Eskilstuna, Sweden, built in line with our Green Warehouse
Vision, runs on 100% green energy.
