- Provide a qualitative assessment of the potential locked-in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from your company's key assets and products. Explain whether and how these emissions could jeopardize the achievement of your GHG emission reduction targets and contribute to transition risk. Additionally, if applicable, describe your company's plans to manage its GHG-intensive and energy-intensive assets and products.

Question Id: E1-1_07
Regarding the link between the climate targets and the decarbonisation levers, for the near-term target in scope 1 and 2, the energy consumption reduction and efficiency in own operations (lever 1), along with the phase-in of renewable electricity for own operations (lever 2), will enable the required reduction by 2030. It is important to highlight that fleet electrification (lever 3) is a complementary effort to ensure that the GHG emissions reduction takes place as soon as possible and that the fossil fuel emissions from the fleet are controlled and do not jeopardise the near-term target. For the near-term target in scope 3, the relevance of each lever still needs to be assessed.

- Has the undertaking established GHG emission reduction targets that are science-based and aligned with the objective of limiting global warming to 1.5°C? Specify the framework and methodology utilized to determine these targets, including whether they follow a sectoral decarbonisation pathway. Detail the underlying climate and policy scenarios, and confirm if the targets have undergone external assurance. Additionally, provide a concise explanation of how future developments, such as changes in sales volumes, shifts in customer preferences and demand, regulatory factors, and new technologies, have been considered in setting these targets and their potential impact on both GHG emissions and emissions reductions.

Demant submitted its climate targets for validation to the SBTi in 2021, using 2019 as the baseline year. The targets align with the Paris Agreement’s goal of limiting the global temperature increase to 1.5°C by the end of the century. The targets were validated by the SBTi in July 2023. The target-setting methodology uses a cross-sector pathway and market-based accounting approach. Future developments are considered as Demant’s Transition Plan is under constant development, and new levers will be added over time, especially with a view to reducing scope 3 GHG emissions as new information becomes available.
