In 2023, Accelerate Diagnostics, Inc. reported total carbon emissions of approximately 6,800,000,000 kg CO2e, with emissions distributed across all three scopes: 113,528,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 139,701,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 6,800,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3. This data highlights the company's significant reliance on indirect emissions, particularly in Scope 3, which encompasses the majority of their carbon footprint. Despite the substantial emissions figures, there are currently no publicly disclosed reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon emissions. This absence of specific commitments may reflect a broader industry context where many companies are still developing comprehensive climate strategies. As a company headquartered in the US, Accelerate Diagnostics, Inc. is positioned within a sector increasingly scrutinised for its environmental impact, underscoring the importance of establishing clear climate commitments and reduction strategies in the future.
