In 2020, Telia started including climate thresholds and targets as criteria in its procurement process.

Deutsche Telekom also includes sustainability criteria in the selection process for its suppliers, which it currently weights at 20 per cent for tendering processes. What has enabled the big strides in companies’ own emission reductions is a shift towards using renewables rather than fossil fuels to power networks. Both Tele2 and Telia started purchasing all of their electricity from renewable sources in 2020, allowing them to reduce their Scope 2 emissions by 94 and 85 per cent, respectively. Telia is using carbon credits to make the final leap to 100 per cent Scope 2 emission reduction over the same period.
