Safran's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Safran reported total greenhouse gas emissions of approximately 380,973,000 kg CO2e, which includes 167,774,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 213,199,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 618,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. The company has set ambitious climate commitments, aiming to reduce its absolute Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 50.4% by 2030, using 2018 as the base year. Additionally, Safran targets a 42.5% reduction in Scope 3 emissions from the use of sold products per available seat kilometre by 2035, also based on 2018 levels. These targets align with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and are designed to contribute to limiting global warming to 1.5°C. Safran is committed to reporting annually on its progress and collaboration with stakeholders to mitigate non-CO2 impacts associated with aviation.
