CO2 offsets KPI

Our efforts to prevent greenhouse gases include relying on renewable energies, and reducing our energy consumption through more energy-efficient technologies. So far, however, this has not allowed us to prevent all carbon emissions, which is why we offset those emissions by investing in certified climate protection projects.

Our Event Policy specifies the ways in which we offset emissions generated by events. In 2022, we offset almost 58 000 metric tons of carbon through various measures like renewable energy projects. Around 37 000 metric tons of CO2 were compensated for through renewable energy projects. We offset a further 12 000 metric tons of CO2 through carbon removal projects. The projects are designed to remove carbon from the atmosphere and store it on a permanent basis.

We are aiming to reach climate neutrality by the end of 2025. We plan to achieve this goal by investing in measures for long-term capture of carbon emissions, and we are currently developing a strategy to this end.
