Emerson Electric

"Emerson Electric Co. has set a target to achieve net zero greenhouse gas emissions across Scopes 1, 2, and 3 by 2045, using 2021 as the baseline. Net Zero Tracker
The company also has an interim target to reduce emissions by 25% relative to 2021 emissions by 2030. Net Zero Tracker
An interesting fact about their environmental policy is that they conducted a thorough review of all historical energy consumption data, leading to revisions to their energy consumption and emission data for fiscal years 2018-2020. Net Zero Tracker
In addition, you can check out the net-zero commitments and data for …"

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.

Emerson Electric belongs to the sector Industrials.

Overall Net-Zero Target
Emerson commits to reach net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across the value chain by
FY2045.

Near-Term Targets
Emerson commits to reduce absolute scope 1 and scope 2 GHG emissions 90% by FY2030
from a FY2021 base year.* Emerson also commits to reduce absolute scope 3 GHG emissions
25% within the same timeframe.
*The target boundary includes biogenic emissions and removals from bioenergy feedstocks.

Long-Term Targets
Emerson commits to maintain at least 90% absolute scope 1 and 2 GHG emission reductions
from FY2030 through FY2045, relative to a FY2021 base year.* Emerson also commits to
reduce absolute scope 3 GHG emissions 90% by FY2045 from a FY2021 base year.
*The target boundary includes land-related emissions and removals from bioenergy
feedstocks.
