KONGSBERG has acquired and integrated Commercial Marine and Kongsberg Aviation Maintenance Services (KAMS), (previously AIM Norway) in 2019, considerably increasing both the number of employees and turnover. The percentage turnover in the maritime and defence segments changed from 58/42 in 2018 to 70/30 respectively in 2019. This is reflected in the climate statement and renders comparison difficult.

In addition, the data quality and scope of the figures for the climate statement improved during the period 2015–2019, which is reflected in the higher emission figures. This particularly applies to flights booked outside Norway. We are continually making improvements and will establish a new climate strategy from 2020 and adopt a new baseline and climate goals.

CO₂ emissions in 2015 were just under 40,000 metric tonnes.

The Group's emissions were more or less the same in 2019 as in 2015, excluding acquired companies. Total CO₂ emissions are estimated at 60,400 tonnes for 2019, including acquired companies.

The ratio calculated for total emissions relative to turnover remained stable from 2015 and indicates a slight increase relative to the number of full-time equivalents.

Our direct and indirect emissions relative to energy consumption indicate a reduction in relation to both turnover and employees. The same applies to emissions relative to the transport of goods. Emissions related to flights indicate an increase with regard to turnover/employees. This is primarily due to a significant increase in customer support activity within KM following the acquisition of Commercial Marine. This organisation has a high degree of travel-related activity. See the ratios in the tables for CO₂ emissions, energy consumption and waste.

The environmental accounts includes the following sources of CO₂ emissions:

• Direct emissions (Scope 1): Emissions from the use of fuel oil and gas for heating and processes, as well as from the production of district heating at Kongsberg Technology Park.
• Indirect emissions from electricity (Scope 2): Emissions from electricity consumption and district heating or cooling from external suppliers. The CO₂ emission factors used for electricity are location-based and in accordance with GHG Protocol Scope 2 Guidance¹⁾.
• Emissions from flights and the transport of goods and products (Scope 3): Emissions from flights and emissions associated with the transport of goods and merchandise²⁾.

  For Norway, a location-based factor of 50t CO₂/GWh has been used (this emission factor for Norway has also been used in previous reporting years).
  2) CO₂ emissions from transport are limited to import, export and domestic transport, payable in Norway.
  3) CO₂ emissions (metric tonnes) for KONGSBERG. Emissions from the consumption of fossil fuels for the production of district heating supplied by Kongsberg Technology Park are included in direct emissions. Indirect emissions include the consumption of electricity, district heating and cooling from external suppliers within the business areas, as well as the consumption of electricity for the production of district heating and cooling in Kongsberg Technology Park.

^{Graphs: Total energy consumption for KONGSBERG. The figures include electricity, oil and gas, as well as recycled energy used by Kongsberg Technology Park for the production of district heating, district cooling and compressed air also supplied to non-KONGSBERG companies. See the ratios in the tables for CO₂ emissions, energy consumption and waste.}

KONGSBERG uses energy in the form of electricity, district heating, district cooling, gas and heating oil in its operations. Kongsberg Technology Park produces district heating, district cooling and compressed air for businesses based in the tech-nology parks in Kongsberg. Approximately half is supplied to other businesses in the technology park. District heating and district cooling are produced using electricity, heating oil, gas and heat recovery. Efficient technology makes it possible to recover in the range of 20-25 GWh heat at the facility at Kongsberg Technology Park. The use of as much recovered heat as possible in the facility is desirable, as this helps reduce a similar consump-tion of oil, gas and electricity. In 2019, 25 GWh was recovered at the facility.

Waste volumes are included in KONGSBERG’s internal environmental reporting, where waste generated is divided into waste categories and waste for recycling divided into recycling fractions.
