Carbon Reduction & GHG Emission Reduction Policy

Approved: 21.10.2025

1. Purpose

Ledidi AS recognises the urgent global need to address climate change and is committed to playing its part in reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.

Our Commitment:
Ledidi AS confirms its commitment to achieving Net Zero GHG emissions by 2045.

2. Definition

• Scope 1: Direct emissions (company vehicles, on-site fuel)

• Scope 2: Indirect emissions (electricity use)

• Scope 3: Other indirect emissions (business travel, procurement, data centers, etc.)

• Methodology: Emission factors from DEFRA and the GHG Protocol were used

6. Description

Ledidi is located in Norway, whose power supply is among the cleanest and most sustainable in the world. Its environmental impact is generally low compared to most countries.
Over 90% of Norway’s electricity comes from hydropower, making it one of the most renewable energy-based systems globally. Because nearly all electricity comes from renewables, the carbon intensity of Norwegian power is among the lowest worldwide — typically 10–20 g CO₂/kWh (versus approximately 400–900 g for coal).
Hydropower plants emit very little CO₂ during operation — essentially negligible compared to fossil-fuel plants.

Ledidi’s Objectives

a. Reduce Scope 1, Scope 2, and relevant Scope 3 GHG emissions. The company currently possesses no direct emission sources (regarding Scope 1).
b. Integrate sustainability into decision-making.
c. Support suppliers and partners in adopting low-carbon practices.
d. Report transparently on progress and continuously improve.

Guidelines to Be Implemented and Followed Up

e. Energy Efficiency: Use of renewable electricity in offices and data centers where available.
f. Cloud Infrastructure Efficiency: All infrastructure hosted on AWS, with 100% renewable energy by 2025.
g. Remote-First Operations: Reduced commuting and travel through digital collaboration.
h. Energy-Efficient Offices: Forskningsparken (Oslo Science Park) follows an environmental improvement policy.
i. Business Travel Policy: Minimise air travel; preference for sustainable transport and virtual meetings.
j. Procurement Practices: Prioritisation of suppliers with strong environmental credentials.
k. Transparency: Progress reports published starting 2025.
