GHG emissions in 2021 have been restated across all scopes because of adjustments, improvements in data quality, methodological changes and updates to emission factors (see table to the right). Restatements are compared to 2023, which included SteelSeries emissions. SteelSeries emissions from 2021, before the acquisition, were therefore already captured in the data. The baseline for our Scope 1 and 2 emission reduction target has been restated from 10,507 tCO2eq to 9,832 tCO2eq, a decrease of 6.4%.

GN has set Board-approved science-based GHG emission reduction targets to manage our climate-related impact and risks by decarbonizing in line with the scientific consensus on the urgency of addressing climate change and the degradation of nature. We are committed to reduce absolute GHG emissions (metric tons CO2eq) in Scope 1 and 2 by 80% and in Scope 3 by 25% by 2030 from a 2021 baseline. GN is also committed to reaching net-zero GHG emissions by 2050 at the latest, meaning 90% reduction with neutralization of unabated emissions to reach net zero. These targets cover all GHGs stipulated in the GHG Protocol and all activities in GN’s own operations and value chain globally. Our near-term targets have been set using the Science Based Targets initiative’s (SBTi) Criteria v5.0 with the absolute contraction approach and the cross-sector pathway, which is based on the P1 scenario in the IPCC Special Report on Global Warming of 1.5°C. It has been assumed that GN’s core business activities will not change by 2030. We have aligned our net-zero target to the SBTi’s cross-sector absolute reduction method for long-term targets.
