The carbon footprint indicates how much greenhouse gas is produced during the life cycle of the product or activity.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>Carbon footprint is calculated according to the GHG protocol<\/h2>\n<p>The journey of companies towards carbon neutrality is made concrete by determining the carbon footprint of the entire operation in accordance with a reliable standard. We selected Green Carbon as a partner. The calculation has been carried out in accordance with the GHG Protocol Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard. The carbon footprint calculation according to the GHG protocol gives an accurate picture of the amount of CO2 emissions.<\/p>\n<p>The company\u2019s emission sources are classified into three different categories. Scope 1 covers direct emissions, such as the company\u2019s own energy production or the use of its own vehicles. Scope 2 includes indirect emissions from purchasing energy, such as electricity and heat purchased by the company. Scope 3 includes other indirect emissions, such as emissions from raw materials and services purchased by companies or emissions from commuting. Emission sources are classified into different scopes in order to understand which emissions are directly attributable to the company\u2019s own activities and which are attributable to the supply chain.<\/p>\n<div class=\"row\"  id=\"row-260732146\">\n\n\t<div id=\"col-1716170508\" class=\"col medium-6 small-12 large-6\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t<div class=\"img has-hover x md-x lg-x y md-y lg-y\" id=\"image_277525602\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"img-inner dark\" >\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/isku.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Figure_1_ISKUs_carbon_Footprint.jpg\" class=\"attachment-original size-original\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/isku.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Figure_1_ISKUs_carbon_Footprint.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/isku.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Figure_1_ISKUs_carbon_Footprint-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/isku.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Figure_1_ISKUs_carbon_Footprint-1000x563.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/isku.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Figure_1_ISKUs_carbon_Footprint-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/isku.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Figure_1_ISKUs_carbon_Footprint-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/isku.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Figure_1_ISKUs_carbon_Footprint-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/isku.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Figure_1_ISKUs_carbon_Footprint-500x281.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#image_277525602 {\n  width: 100%;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"col-133001524\" class=\"col medium-6 small-12 large-6\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n<p><strong>Scope 1:<\/strong> Combustion of own vehicles and fuels, natural gas<\/p>\n<p><strong>Scope 2:<\/strong> Purchased energy: electricity and district heating<\/p>\n<p><strong>Scope 3:<\/strong> Materials, waste, packaging materials, transportation, supplies, commuting, business travel, water consumption, fuel production<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#col-133001524 > .col-inner {\n  padding: 100px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n<\/div>\n<h2>Calculation results<\/h2>\n<p>The result of the calculation is expressed in carbon dioxide equivalents (CO2e) taking into account the different global warming potential of the different greenhouse gases. The company\u2019s carbon footprint is determined for one calendar year and the ISKU\u2019s carbon footprint was calculated for 2021. ISKU&#8217;s carbon footprint in 2021 was a total of 11,471.2 t CO2e.<\/p>\n<h3>ISKU\u2019s carbon footprint in 2021 totalled 11471.2 t CO2e<\/h3>\n<p>The figure corresponds to the average annual emissions of approximately 1,114 Finns (comparison data from Sitra 2019). Measured in terms of number of employees, the carbon footprint was approximately 18.9 t CO2e \/ employee. Measured per turnover, the carbon footprint was 3,584.8 t CO2e \/ mill. \u20ac.<\/p>\n\t<div id=\"gap-655929696\" class=\"gap-element clearfix\" style=\"display:block; height:auto;\">\n\t\t\n<style>\n#gap-655929696 {\n  padding-top: 30px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t<div class=\"img has-hover x md-x lg-x y md-y lg-y\" id=\"image_1565952217\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"img-inner dark\" >\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/isku.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Figure_2_emissions_of_scopes_with_the_emission_sources.jpg\" class=\"attachment-original size-original\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/isku.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Figure_2_emissions_of_scopes_with_the_emission_sources.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/isku.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Figure_2_emissions_of_scopes_with_the_emission_sources-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/isku.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Figure_2_emissions_of_scopes_with_the_emission_sources-1000x563.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/isku.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Figure_2_emissions_of_scopes_with_the_emission_sources-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/isku.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Figure_2_emissions_of_scopes_with_the_emission_sources-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/isku.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Figure_2_emissions_of_scopes_with_the_emission_sources-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/isku.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Figure_2_emissions_of_scopes_with_the_emission_sources-500x281.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#image_1565952217 {\n  width: 100%;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t<div id=\"gap-1313353478\" class=\"gap-element clearfix\" style=\"display:block; height:auto;\">\n\t\t\n<style>\n#gap-1313353478 {\n  padding-top: 30px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The above figure shows the emissions of scopes with the emission sources.<\/p>\n\t<div class=\"img has-hover x md-x lg-x y md-y lg-y\" id=\"image_1031319553\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"img-inner dark\" >\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/isku.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Figure_3_Scopre_1-4.jpg\" class=\"attachment-original size-original\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/isku.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Figure_3_Scopre_1-4.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/isku.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Figure_3_Scopre_1-4-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/isku.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Figure_3_Scopre_1-4-1000x563.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/isku.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Figure_3_Scopre_1-4-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/isku.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Figure_3_Scopre_1-4-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/isku.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Figure_3_Scopre_1-4-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/isku.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Figure_3_Scopre_1-4-500x281.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#image_1031319553 {\n  width: 100%;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t<div id=\"text-802212409\" class=\"text\">\n\t\t\n<p>The table above displays the emission sources included in the ISKU calculation by scope, and that no emission sources were left out of the calculation.<\/p>\n\t\t\n<style>\n#text-802212409 {\n  text-align: center;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n<p><strong>Need any assistance?\u00a0<span class=\"ui-provider ee ayp ayq ayr ays ayt ayu ayv ayw ayx ayy ayz aza azb azc azd aze azf azg azh azi azj azk azl azm azn azo azp azq azr azs azt azu azv azw\" dir=\"ltr\">Get in touch with your inquiry!<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/share.hsforms.com\/18jpSi2kSRLKFdNhQ5abo-g4dz4s\" class=\"button secondary\" style=\"border-radius:10px;\">\n\t\t<span>contact us<\/span>\n\t<\/a>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ISKU operations&#8217; carbon footprint The sustainability objective of ISKU has been to determine the carbon footprint of the entire operations in 2021 by an independent calculation expert in accordance with a reliable standard.
