ClimateHero’s statement:
Road Rental has made an impressive start in their climate journey by completing a comprehensive carbon accounting report, covering emissions across Scopes 1, 2, and 3. They have set clear, ambitious reduction goals and are focusing on transparency and accountability in their climate efforts.
Most of their emissions stem from Scope 3, particularly material purchases like concrete and steel. It's encouraging to see Road Rental prioritizing climate criteria in procurement and taking steps towards fossil-free and circular alternatives, showing a strong commitment to reducing their environmental impact.
Climate Goals:
Net-zero emissions by 2050, based on the Science-Based Targets initiative’s Net Zero Standard, aiming for a 90% reduction.
Halve emissions by 2030 in line with the Paris Agreement and the 1.5°C target.
Interim goals by 2026, including a 25% reduction in Scope 1 emissions, 100% fossil-free electricity in Scope 2, and a 20% reduction in Scope 3 emissions.
Key Findings:
Total emissions for 2023: 7,052 tons CO2e
Emissions intensity: 29.9 tons CO2e per MSEK of turnover.
Scope Breakdown:
Scope 1 (Direct emissions): 7.6%
Scope 2 (Indirect emissions from energy use): 0.5%
Scope 3 (Upstream and downstream emissions): 91.9%
Next Steps & Actions:
To achieve its ambitious goals, Road Rental has outlined several actions including:
Transition from mobile (diesel) heating units to fossil-free alternatives and start phasing out fossil fuels in own vehicles by use of HVO and selection of electric and hybrid models where feasible..
Climate impact as key priority in procurement processes related to materials and purchased transports, eg. increase procurement of low-carbon materials, focusing on recycled materials, alternatives like climate-neutral concrete and steel and circular models.
Public engagement and supplier engagement - engage suppliers to calculate their climate impact and participate in carbon reduction initiatives like Race to Zero.
Future Commitments:
Road Rental aims to expand their efforts by continuing to assess their emissions annually, introducing multi-year comparisons, and enhancing their focus on stakeholder engagement.
