The main sources of Scope 1 emissions in the automotive sector include:

1. 1. Manufacturing Processes: the production of vehicles and components can generate GHG emissions;
   2. Factory Operations: resulting from the combustion of fossil fuels in boilers, for example to generate heat, electricity or steam in factory facilities;
   3. Company Vehicle Fleets: emissions associated with company vehicles used for internal transport, delivery of parts or other purposes related to vehicle manufacture also contribute to this category;
   4. Fluorinated Gases: any leaks of GHGs associated with the use of refrigerant gases in air conditioning or refrigeration systems on the factory premises also have a relevant weight in this category.

Monitoring and managing Scope 1 emissions in the automotive sector is fundamental to understanding and minimizing the environmental impact of internal operations. The industry can reduce its Scope 1 emissions through sustainable practices, such as improving energy efficiency in facilities, transitioning to cleaner energy sources, reducing the use of fossil fuels in its fleets and adopting less energy-intensive manufacturing technologies. Understanding and reducing Scope 1 emissions is a basic condition for the automotive sector to mitigate its environmental impacts and move towards more sustainable and less carbon-intensive production.

The development of the Decarbonization Roadmap for the National Automotive Sector has the same objectives: to reduce the impact of these industries on the environment by reducing their emissions and, at the same time, to contribute to their greater adaptation and resilience to future climate challenges.
