This classification is useful for understanding the origins and impacts of emissions, as well as for developing reduction strategies and climate change mitigation policies.

In this context, Scope 1 refers to the direct greenhouse gas emissions that an organization generates from its internal activities and emissions from its own fleet vehicles. These are the emissions over which the organization has direct control.

Scope 2 emissions, considered indirect, are associated with the production of energy purchased and used by an organization, usually from third parties, such as electricity purchased from the grid.

Finally, Scope 3 emissions are indirect, or induced, emissions associated with an organization's activities that occur outside of its direct operations, and are therefore directly linked to the activity carried out in the value chain. Scope 3 emissions are usually the most representative and the most difficult for organizations to track and control.

The development of the Decarbonization Roadmap for the National Automotive Sector will take these specificities into account in order to effectively reduce the impact of these industries on the environment and, at the same time, contribute to their greater adaptation and resilience to future climate challenges.
