Powerschool's reported carbon emissions
In 2020, PowerSchool reported total carbon emissions of approximately 2,000,000 kg CO2e, comprising 89,100 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 370,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 206,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. The company has not disclosed emissions data for 2022, and there are no specific reduction targets or climate pledges noted in their current commitments. PowerSchool's emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation, indicating that the figures are solely representative of its own operations. The company has not established any Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) reduction targets or other formal climate commitments, which places it in a context where further action may be necessary to align with industry standards for climate accountability. Overall, while PowerSchool has made strides in transparency regarding its emissions, the absence of recent data and reduction initiatives suggests an opportunity for enhanced climate action and commitment moving forward.
