CLIMATE RESPONSIBILITY
Transparency and clarity regarding our carbon footprint
At e-Core, we are committed to measuring, managing and reducing our greenhouse gas emissions, while building a more responsible path foward, accross our value chain.
Why do we care about climate responsibility?
As a tech company, we recognize that our environmental impact and carbon emissions, though minimal, continue to affect the planet.
To support a more responsible future, we have joined the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), the leading global benchmark for corporate emissions targets aligned with climate science.
Our approach to emission reduction
More sustainable operations
e-Core operates with a relatively low profile of direct emissions.
Our business model, which prioritizes remote work, reduces emissions typically associated with large physical facilities and operations involving heavy traffic.
Measure and
influence
Our emissions inventory includes
direct emissions from our operations,
indirect emissions from purchased energy, and
relevant emissions
from the value chain.
We strive to encourage our partners and customers to work toward a more sustainable world.
Working across the entire value chain
Like many companies in the technology sector, our carbon footprint is primarily linked to the procurement of goods and services.
We are committed to improving transparency, engaging with suppliers, and fostering greater alignment with our goals.
Our targets
The
Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi)
has approved our short-term emissions targets. In accordance with SBTi guidelines, we are publishing the text of the approved targets in a clear and transparent manner.
Scope 1 and 2 targets
We are committed to reducing absolute Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions by 42% by 2030.
How we’re doing it:
Purchasing renewable energy certificates (I-RECs) for the electricity used at our facilities.
Scope 3 targets
We are committed to ensuring that 70% of our suppliers, in terms of emissions related to purchased goods and services, have science-based targets within five years.
How we’re doing it:
Prioritizing supplier engagement based on the significance of emissions.
What are the types of emissions?
Scope 1
Direct emissions from our operations
These are generated by sources under e-Core’s direct control, such as fuel use or other in-house operational activities.
Scope 2
Indirect emissions from purchased energy
These are emissions associated with the electricity and energy that power our operations.
Scope 3
Indirect emissions from the value chain
These are linked to activities that are not under e-Core’s direct control but are part of the business’s operations, such as purchased goods and services, suppliers, travel, and other activities related to our operations.
Our carbon footprint
For e-Core, the most significant sources of emissions are concentrated in value chain activities rather than in direct operations. That is why supplier engagement and procurement-related actions are central to our reduction strategy.
By publishing our data, we aim to increase transparency regarding our climate journey and highlight the most relevant areas of our emissions inventory.
