Scope 1 GHG emissions: Direct GHG from sources
owned or controlled by 3Shape. In 2025, this covered
emissions from diesel and gasoline combustion in
company vehicles and a power generator.
Total energy consumption from fossil sources: Total
energy consumption from fossil sources measured in
MWh for own operations. Includes 1) fuel consumption
and 2) consumption of purchased or acquired elec-
tricity, heat, steam, or cooling from fossil sources. Fuel
consumption is categorized by consumption from i) coal
and coal products, ii) crude oil and petroleum products,
iii) natural gas, and (iv) other fossil sources. Consumption
data is obtained from meter readings, invoices, property
owner reports, or statements from energy companies
and lessors. If monthly data is missing for certain sites,
consumption is assumed equal to the previous month.
For sites where energy consumption data was unavail-
able, estimates are based on the intensity method using
comparable sites or country units.

Scope 2 GHG emissions (market-based and loca-
tion-based): Indirect GHG emissions from the genera-
tion of purchased electricity, heat, and steam, reported
using both market-based and location-based methods
under the GHG Protocol. Market-based: Emissions from
utilities where 3Shape purchases electricity with bundled
instruments or unbundled Energy Attribute Certificates
Location-based: Emissions calculated using national grid
average factors for the relevant locations.

Percentage of Contractual instruments in Scope 2
market-based emissions: Share of energy consumption
covered by contractual instruments (bundled and unbun-
dled EACs) relative to total energy consumption for all
Scope 2 activities.
Total energy consumption from nuclear sources:
Measured as the total energy consumption from nuclear
sources in MWh related to own operations.

Total energy consumption from renewable sources:
Total renewable energy consumption in MWh for
own operations, including 1) fuel consumption from
renewable sources including biomass, biofuels, biogas,
hydrogen from renewable sources, etc., 2) consumption
of purchased electricity, heat, steam, and cooling from
renewable sources, and 3) consumption of self-generated
non-fuel renewable energy. Consumption of purchased
electricity, heat, steam, and cooling from renewable
sources is obtained through unbundled Energy Attribute
Certificates.
Scope 3 GHG emissions: All indirect emissions (excluding
Scope 2) across 3Shape’s value chain, including upstream
and downstream activities. In 2025, Emissions for
categories 1, 2, 4, and 9 are calculated using a mix of
spend-based and supplier-specific methods. For details,
see p. 57.

Scope 3 Categories: Category 1: Upstream GHG
emissions from the production of goods and services
purchased by 3Shape in 2025, including raw materials,
product components, packaging, software, and IT equip-
ment. Category 2: Refers to upstream emissions from
the production of capital goods purchased or acquired by
3Shape in 2025, primarily machinery and tools. Category
4: Emissions from the transportation and distribution
of products purchased in 2025, between 3Shape’s tier 1
suppliers and its own operations in vehicles not owned or
operated by 3Shape. Category 9: Emissions from trans-
porting and distributing products sold by 3Shape in 2025
between its operations and the end consumer, where
transport costs are not paid by 3Shape.
Fuel consumption from other fossil sources
Consumption of purchased or acquired electricity, heat, steam and cooling
from fossil sources
Total energy consumption: Measured as the sum of
the total energy consumption from 1) fossil sources, 2)
nuclear sources and 3) renewable sources at all 3Shape
owned or controlled sites.

CapEx amounts invested related to coal, oil and gas:
Significant CapEx
invested during the reporting period
related to coal, oil and gas-related economic activities.
CapEx amounts considered are direct investments
related to the following NACE codes B.05, B.06,B.09.1,
C.19, D.35.1, D.35.3, G.46.81. Investments considered
significant are above the threshold of 450,000 DKK.
Biogenic emission of CO₂
from combustion or biodeg-
radation of biomass: Includes biogenic CO₂ emissions
from biomass combustion (scope 1) and from the use
of electricity, steam, and heating generated through
biomass in the value chain (scope 2). Under the loca-
tion-based approach, the grid average emission factors
used do not specify biomass share or report biogenic CO₂
separately, effectively treating them as “zero” emissions.

3Shape does not directly procure energy from coal or nuclear sources. However, some office locations
are in countries where these sources are part of the electricity mix.
