Ab Inbev's reported carbon emissions
Anheuser-Busch InBev (ABI), headquartered in BE and operating within the Beverages industry, has demonstrated a commitment to reducing its carbon footprint. **Recent Emissions Data:** * In 2025, ABI reported total greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of approximately 22.14 billion kg CO2e. This comprised Scope 1 emissions of about 2.51 billion kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions (market-based) of approximately 600 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions totalling around 19.03 billion kg CO2e. Key contributors to Scope 3 were purchased goods and services (approximately 11.97 billion kg CO2e) and upstream transportation and distribution (approximately 2.16 billion kg CO2e). * For 2024, total emissions were approximately 23.62 billion kg CO2e. Scope 1 emissions stood at about 2.49 billion kg CO2e, Scope 2 (market-based) at approximately 760 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at approximately 20.37 billion kg CO2e. * In 2023, total emissions were approximately 25.83 billion kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at about 2.65 billion kg CO2e, Scope 2 (market-based) at approximately 800 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at approximately 22.38 billion kg CO2e. * In 2022, total emissions were approximately 27.77 billion kg CO2e, with Scope 3 emissions at approximately 24.09 billion kg CO2e and Scope 1 and 2 emissions totalling around 3.68 billion kg CO2e. **Climate Commitments and Targets:** ABI has set ambitious targets to decarbonise its operations and value chain: * **Net Zero Ambition:** The company aims to achieve net zero across its entire value chain by 2040. This commitment encompasses Scopes 1, 2, and 3 emissions. * **Scope 1 and 2 Reductions:** ABI is committed to reducing absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 35% by 2025, using a 2017 baseline year. This target is in line with the pathway to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius. * **Renewable Electricity:** A significant near-term goal is to achieve 100% renewable electricity sourcing by 2025. * **Value Chain Emissions:** ABI also aims to reduce GHG emissions across its value chain by 25% per beverage by 2025, with a 2017 baseline. This target includes approximately 87% of Scope 3 emissions. **Emissions Intensity:** ABI also tracks emissions intensity, with figures such as 0.4524 kg CO2e per hectolitre of production for Scopes 1, 2, and 3 in 2023, indicating efforts to decouple production from emissions. **SBTi Alignment:** ABI's climate targets have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), confirming their alignment with a 1.5°C warming pathway for Scopes 1 and 2, and their renewable electricity procurement target.
