Carbon Emissions
Corporate and Customer Carbon Emissions
Our corporate (Scopes 1 and 2) emissions are less than one per cent of our total scope 1, 2 and 3 carbon emissions.
In contrast, the emissions generated by the activity of our customers inside our warehouses amount accounted forto approximately 57 54 per cent of our total 2024 emissions(including upstream energy emissions).
As with many landlords, responsibility for sourcing energy and monitoring use rests with our customers for the majority of our portfolio. However, given the significant contribution of these customer emissions, we have chosen to include them in our science-based targets
Case Study: SEGRO Logistics Centre Venray
Underfloor heating infrastructure went into the floor slab at SEGRO Logistics Centre Venray and all light industrial and logistic units at SEGRO Park Amsterdam Airport. This heating and cooling technique will allow our customers to make the most efficient use of sustainable (solar) energy. Whether the heat and cold come from the building’s air-sourced heat pumps or from ground sourced heat and cold storage, this technique avoids the use of gas for heating and delivers a perfect indoor climate in the warehouse and office space, without losing loading capacity in the warehouse.
FAQs
SEGRO’s corporate emissions (Scopes 1 and 2) make up less than 1% of its total carbon footprint, showing that the majority of emissions are from other sources.
Customer-related emissions, mostly energy use within SEGRO’s properties, account for around half of total emissions.
Since customer energy consumption represents the largest share of SEGRO’s emissions, the company includes these "customer emissions" in its science-based targets to align efforts and drive meaningful reductions.
At its Logistics Centre in Venray and properties at SEGRO Park Amsterdam Airport, SEGRO has installed underfloor heating systems integrated into the floor slab, powered by air- source heat pumps and supported by solar energy. This setup eliminates reliance on gas and preserves warehouse functionality.
