Accountant

The external auditor of DSM is KPMG. [19]

Operations

DSM business groups are divided in Nutrition, Materials and Innovation Center. Nutrition comprises Animal Nutrition, Human Nutrition, Food and Beverage, and Care and Health. The Materials cluster comprises Engineering Materials and Protective Materials. [20] DSM innovation center is a science-based research center focusing on long-term innovations outside the scope of current mainstream business. [21] DSM specialises in fine chemistry and bioscience. DSM has royal status. [22] DSM did not receive NOW-support during corona times. [23]

Paris Agreement to Today

Scope 1 & 2 market-based GHG emissions improved by 25% compared to the 2016 baseline. [24] The year on year GHG efficiency improved 8,6% in 2020. [25]

Current Policies and Emissions

DSM tries to decouple emissions from economic growth and is committed to reach NetZero GHG emissions across value chains by 2050. [26] DSM wants to improve energy efficiency by at least 1 percent per year. [27] Since 2019, business growth projects must be GHG-neutral or else be compensated within the same business. [28]

DSM total emissions in all scopes over 2020 were 13,2 mton CO2. [29] 1,24 mtonnes are in scope 1 and 2, 12 mton is in scope 3. The goal for scope 3 is an intensity reduction of 28% by 2030. [30] DSM wants to improve energy efficiency by at least 1% annually until 2030. In 2020 energy efficiency has improved by 5,7%. [31]

Scope 1 & 2 market-based GHG emissions improved by 25% compared to the 2016 baseline. Total scope 1& 2 emissions were 1,24 million tons CO2eq in 2020. This was an increase in comparison to 2019 due to inorganic growth and increased production volumes. The year on year GHG efficiency improved 8,6% in 2020. [32] Scope 3 emissions rose in 2020 by 0,4 mton. This was due to increase in purchasing volume and a shift in more carbon-intense raw materials. [33]

DSM improved performance in volatile organic compound (voc’s) to air emission by 74% in 2020 [34]

Climate Plans

DSM has the ambition to cut 30 percent of absolute emissions by 2030 (vs. 2016, scope 1 and 2) and reduce value chain emission per ton of product by 28 percent by 2030 (vs. 2016, scope 3). [35] Scope 3 emissions amount up to 70 percent of DSM’s total emissions. [36] DSM plans to do this by improving their operations, enable customers and partners to deliver sustainable solutions and advocate for the future they believe in [37] Also, DSM plans to buy 75 of electricty from renewable sources by 2030 as well as implement an internal carbon price of 50 euro’s per tonne CO2. [38] Through animal nutrition solutions DSM helps to reduce direct and indirect GHG emissions. [39]

DSM wants to apply an internal carbon taks of 50EU/t CO2eq to key investments, acquisitions and in management reporting. [40] DSM wants to purchase 75% of all its energy used by 2030 from renewable sources. [41]

DSM commits to five drivers of circularity in order to reduce their scope 3 GHG emissions. * Reduce use of critical resources * Replace scarce, hazardous and potentially harmful resources * Extend the lifetime of products * design for recyclability * recover waste streams [42]

DSM joined the Net-Zero Expert Advisory Group in 2020. [43] DSM received an AAA score from MSCI [44] Key targets of DSM are sciene-based and laid out in their Responsible Care Plan, which is integrated into their annual report. [45]

DSM has set up a CO2REDUCE plan to tackle upstream emissions in the value chain. DSM recognises that only together with their partners they can reduce their scope 3 emissions, Currently, the CO2REDUCE plan includes alternative feedstock, sustainable products, supplier selection, energy efficiency, renewable energy, end-of-pipe solutions and circularity of the materials chain. [46]

Conclusion

DSM is a dutch bio-chemical company specialising in health, nutrition and bioscience. DSM makes a profit of over 500 million euro’s yearly. Remuneration of top management is fairly higher than companies with similar revenu and profit numbers. The majority of emissions from DSM are in scope 3.
