In 2023, Costain reduced total emissions by 10% compared to 2022. The company has implemented a climate change action plan, achieving 'Gold' status for the Supply Chain Sustainability School Plant Charter and rolling out a low carbon materials mandate. The implementation of Costain's hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO) fuel mandate contributed to a 24% reduction in Scope 1 emissions, with HVO making up 88% of the fuel mix in 2023. Additionally, there was a 6% year-on-year reduction in natural gas use within offices. Costain's science-based targets were approved by the SBTi in February 2024, and the company continues to work on reducing emissions using an approved absolute science-based approach, aligning with a 1.5°C mitigation pathway.
