We follow employment goals for Goal 3 in the same time frame as for Goals 1 and 2. This means that we will be involved in the value chain and encourage our suppliers to also set goals in this direction. The achievement of the set objectives is addressed through detailed planning of measures and investments to enable efficient use of energy, the transition to renewable energy sources, the phasing out of climate-intensive refrigerants and other activities. In order to achieve the engagement objectives under Goal 3, we intend to improve our cooperation practices with suppliers by communicating to them the approaches they can take, and we will include other processes relevant to this Scope in our calculations. While we have made progress in reducing absolute direct emissions (Goal 1), absolute indirect emissions associated with purchased energy (Goal 2) and those in the supply chain (Goal 3) have increased. The largest increase of the three categories for 2024 was recorded on Scope 3 and resulted from the expansion of operational activities, meaning an increase in energy consumption.
