Airbus

"Airbus has set a net zero target for 2030, which includes a 60% reduction in emissions by that year compared to a 2015 baseline. Net Zero Tracker
This target covers both scope 1 and scope 2 emissions, but it is not specified if scope 3 emissions are included. Net Zero Tracker
An interesting fact about Airbus's environmental policy is that it allows for traded credits (offsets) from outside its territory or value chain to meet the target, provided they are certified by the Gold Standard, Verra, Verified Carbon Standard, or Climate, Community and Biodiversity Standards. Net Zero Tracker
In addition, …"

Sector Benchmark

Note: Latest GHG and revenue data (based on tradingview.com) are used to calculate GHG emissions intensity by sector. The color scale of each bubble depends on the GHG intensity (GHG emissions per 1 million USD revenue). Sectors follow the Global Industry Classification Standard (GICS) that organize companies based on their primary business activities. The 11 sectors are : Information Technology, Health Care, Financials, Consumer Discretionary, Communication Services, Industrials, Consumer Staples, Energy, Utilities, Real Estate, and Materials.

Airbus belongs to the sector Industrials.

Science-based Targets (SBTI)

Date Published / Updated :01/02/2023

Near-term Long-Term Net Zero Standard
Targets Set : 1.5°C by 2030 No target No

Airbus commits to reduce absolute scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions 63% by 2030 from a 2015 base year* **. Airbus also commits to reduce scope 3 GHG emissions from the use of sold products 46% per RPK by 2035 from a 2015 base year* **. *Non-CO2e effects which may also contribute to aviation induced warming are not included in this target. Airbus SE commits to report publicly on its collaboration with stakeholders to improve understanding of opportunities to mitigate the non-CO2e impacts of aviation annually over its target timeframe.**The target boundary includes biogenic emissions and removals from bioenergy feedstocks.
