The content of this webpage includes information originally published as part of the company’s 2021 Annual and Sustainability Report, which has not been updated since such publication and, as a result, may no longer be up-to-date. Further, other content on this webpage may also be out-of-date.

The key figures listed refer to Porsche AG and Porsche Leipzig GmbH.

The categories of “production sites” (Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen and Leipzig including production-related external sites), “development sites” (Weissach including development-related external sites) and “other sites” (Korntal-Münchingen, Freiberg, Asperg, Weilimdorf, ­Ludwigsburg) correspond to the categories used in internal reporting relevant for control.

1) Conversion factor from litres to MWh: petrol ≙ 8.72 kWh/l; diesel ≙ 9.91 kWh/l.

1) 99 per cent of the electrical energy is TÜV-certified green electricity. The remaining 1 per cent relates to the acquisition of new buildings and to existing grey electricity contracts, which were fully transitioned to green electricity on 1 January 2022.

Energy consumption of the production sites in kWh/vehicle

2014 3,757
2020 2,763
2021 2,673

1) The reported GHG emissions (Scope 1) include all the direct emissions of Porsche AG and Porsche Leipzig GmbH. Since the 2021 reporting year, this figure has additionally included emissions from refrigerants and from VOC combustion.
2) The reported emissions relate exclusively to Porsche’s own vehicles. These are presented separately because the business-related proportion cannot be distin­guished from private journeys.
3) Emissions are generally only produced from local travel, as 100 per cent use is made of green electricity for long-distance travel.
4) The NOₓ emissions shown here refer exclusively to production processes, and not to Porsche vehicles.
5) During the stipulated reporting period, there were no emissions of substances included in Annexes A, B, C or E to the Montreal Protocol on Substances that deplete the Ozone Layer.
