Camurus’ GHG reduction and renewable energy program

To support its environmental ambitions and commitments, Camurus has implemented a GHG reduction and renewable energy program. The program consists of the elements outlined in the table below, which also includes a description of performance outcomes in 2025.

 Category Goal  Management measures  2025 performance  Comment 
Reduction of GHG emissions By 2035: Reduce scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by at least 50%1 
  • Purchasing renewable electricity for use in our own operations (laboratories, offices and excipient manufacturing site)
  • Reducing energy use (energy saving measures, move of headquarters to new certified building, purchase of energy efficient equipment for laboratories and manufacturing)
  • Convert the company’s vehicle fleet from combustion engine models to fully electric vehicles 
  • Reduced scope 1+2 GHG emissions (market based) by 6%2 due to energy savings and purchase of renewable energy
  • Reduced GHG intensity within scope 1+2 emissions relative to total revenues by 25%
  • 96 % renewable energy within own operations (laboratories, offices, excipient manufacturing site) - Purchased energy-efficient laboratory equipment and equipment for excipient manufacturing
  • All benefit cars are battery electric cars Share of battery electric vehicles in vehicle fleet: 8% Share of hybrid electric vehicles in vehicle fleet: 19% 
 On track
By 2035: Reduce selected scope 3 GHG emissions by at least 40%3
  • Phase in renewable energy such as HVO and SAF in road and air transportation of products: Air (SAF): 50% GHG emission reduction from 2025; 100% from 2030 Road (HVO): ≥80% GHG emission reduction from 2025; ≥95% from 2035; 100% from 2045
  • Replace business travel with digital meetings where feasible
  • Increase the use of sustainable travel options for business travel and commuting, offer benefit bikes
  • From 2025: Cofinancing of employees’ public transport tickets
  • Collaborate with vendors to improve climate performance across the supply chain
  • Optimize waste management and strengthen circularity according to Camurus’ circularity program 
  • 82% reduction of GHG emissions in product road transportation by use of HVO17
  • 50 % reduction of GHG emissions in product air transportation by use of SAF4
  • Cofinancing public transport tickets cut headquarters commuting GHG emissions by 17%
  • See outcome of Camurus’ circularity program here
On track 
By 2045: Net zero GHG emissions (scope 1, 2 and 3)5
  • All of the above actions, along with the procurement of products and services with minimized climate footprint including raw material and packaging
  • See 2025 results for scope 1, 2 and 3 goals above
 On track
 Renewable energy 2024 and onwards: At least 80% of the energy used within Camurus’ operations (offices, labs and excipient manufacturing) to come from renewable sources
  • Purchase renewable electricity, district heating and cooling in offices, laboratories and excipient manufacturing site
  • Roof top solar panels at headquarters
  • Share of renewable energy in operations (offices, laboratories, and excipient manufacturing facilities): 96 %
 On track
 Energy efficiency improvements  
  • Relocation of the headquarters to a LEED Gold–certified building with enhanced environmental performance standards
  • Purchase of energy-efficient laboratory equipment
  • Energy use from office and laboratory activities at headquarters decreased by 44%, resulting in total energy savings of 392 MWh
 
Electric vehicles
  • From 2024 and onwards: All new benefit cars are battery electric vehicles6
  • From 2030 and onwards: Transition of job cars to battery electric vehicles in the Nordic countries6
  • From 2035 and onwards: Transition of job cars to battery electric vehicles in other European countries6
  • From 2040 and onwards: Transition of job cars to battery electric vehicles in all other countries6

Note: the transition to battery electric vehicles will eliminate all exhaust emissions from Camurus’ vehicle fleet.

  • Switch from combustion engine cars to battery electric cars to reduce energy consumption, GHG emissions and eliminate local air pollution, see timeline in goals
  • All benefit cars are battery electric cars
  • Share of battery electric vehicles in vehicle fleet: 8%
  • Share of hybrid electric vehicles in vehicle fleet: 19%
