Over the past few years, Sensata has shown a commitment to reducing its carbon footprint. In 2022, total emissions were approximately 168,287,000 kg CO2e, indicating a slight increase in 2023. The company has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other formal climate pledges, which suggests a need for more structured climate commitments moving forward. Sensata's emissions intensity, calculated as total Scope 1 and 2 emissions per million dollars of revenue, has varied, reflecting the company's operational changes and revenue fluctuations. The latest reported intensity for 2023 was approximately 0.04205 kg CO2e per $1 million in revenue. Overall, while Sensata Technologies has made strides in tracking and reporting its emissions, the absence of formal reduction targets highlights an opportunity for enhanced climate action and commitment to sustainability in the future.
