SKY-LIGHT A/S has demonstrated progress towards its environmental targets since the baseline year of 2020.

In 2024, we achieved a 53% reduction in Scope 1 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, a 55% reduction in Scope 2 emissions, and a 15% reduction in Scope 3 emissions compared to 2020 levels. This contributed to an overall 16% decrease in total GHG emissions. These improvements resulted from lower energy consumption, reduced transport activities, increased use of recycled materials, and declining emission factors.

Despite lower production volumes in 2024 than in 2020, operational efficiency improved, as evidenced by a 12% reduction in CO₂e intensity per tonne of purchased raw materials, from 2.35 t CO₂e in 2020 to 2.06 t CO₂e in 2024.

Energy consumption in 2024 included significant electricity usage, which constituted approximately 95% of total energy use. 87% of all energy use came from renewable sources. In 2024, we shifted to self-sufficient heating through waste heat recovery and heat pumps, phasing out purchased district heating.

Water withdrawal remained notably low at 1,828 m³.

Reprocessed inputs from internal and external sources comprised 74.5% of total feedstock, reducing our reliance on virgin plastics, which constituted 25.5% (dropping from 33.4% in 2020).

Looking ahead, we aim for a 75% reduction in Scope 1 emissions and 80% in Scope 2 by 2030, reaching zero emissions in both scopes by 2050, alongside a 50% cut in Scope 3 by 2050. Additional targets include reducing virgin plastic per tonne of product and combustible waste by 30% by 2030. Initiatives encompass electrifying the vehicle fleet and finding alternatives to natural gas in drying processes for Scope 1; installing solar panels for Scope 2; and further minimizing virgin PET use while optimizing logistics and material selections for Scope 3.
